On Mother’s Day, a reminder one of the most supportive things our society can do is build infrastructure that relieves them of the role of taxi driver—saving untold time, money and stress.
While cities sit waiting for autonomous cars, they could be designing for autonomous kids.

I think it’s past time to call it — Vancouver is no longer a leader among cities in new urban biking & active transportation infrastructure. It’s now joined the ranks of cities that made strong progress in the past, but at best has stalled & in fact is sadly now moving backwards.

This is a huge step backwards for the city, one of several deliberate steps ABC has taken to ignore or even increase the physical risks for me and my family when moving around town.

The childcare shortage is hurting #Vancouver families.
Last week, OneCity proposed to immediately explore modular childcare options; Green and ABC Trustees rejected that plan for a report instead.
Parents and kids can't keep waiting for ABC to act.

And if we didn't need more reasons why CIty Council should leave @parkboard alone. Just last month Sim and the ABC council reversed the Britannia gym and pool upgrade in East Vancouver, which had been in the works for years. via @natecrompton #vanpoli

My lab is looking to hire a postdoc to work on amygdala and stress projects, with a focus on endocannabinoids.
This project would incorporate a range of techniques/approaches and my lab is nested in a great research environment.
