We were pleased to present the CIRQ Writing Guide at the Queen's Health Sciences Scholarship, Teaching, and Learning Celebration on May 28, 2026. During the session, we showcased our online learning module and shared our experience mentoring students through the scientific writing process with fellow educators. We also extend our sincere thanks to Dr. Matt Hanson and Dr. Isabelle Gray for serving as panelists and sharing their valuable insights on effective scientific writing, helping make the session both engaging and informative.

Our team proudly presented three research posters at HF Update 2026 (HFU 26). We extend our congratulations to Ahmed Kubba for earning First Place and Arjun Aggarwal for receiving Third Place in the conference poster competition. Congratulations to both presenters on this well-deserved recognition of their outstanding work.

At Science Rendezvous 2026, we were excited to share the world of cardiology with our community through interactive, hands-on activities. Visitors enjoyed live echocardiography demonstrations and had the opportunity to explore cardiology equipment, including stethoscopes and heart rate monitors. Children and families learned about heart anatomy, how the heart works, and the technology healthcare professionals use to care for patients—making cardiovascular science fun, engaging, and accessible for all ages.

We were proud to attend the Heart Failure Update 25 Conference, where our team presented two research posters. Both were nominated for the Best Poster Award, with one winning first place and the other taking third place. A big congratulations to our dedicated team for this outstanding achievement!

Science Rendezvous 2025 Kingston took place on Saturday, May 10, at the Slush Puppies Place. We were pleased to have hundreds of visitors and educate them about heart anatomy and blood circulation.
