Do dietitians in Canada prescribe carbohydrate restriction? A survey of knowledge, use and barriers
Before 2020, diabetes nutrition care excluded carbohydrate restriction but growing evidence supports this approach now included in Canada’s Clinical Practice Guidelines. We assessed the knowledge, use and barriers of dietitians to improve diabetes nutrition care in Canada.
Tracking chemical coherence in condensed media
cis-stilbene is a photochemical prototype for cis-trans olefinic photoisomerisation. In our recent work, we show that this process maintains coherence throughout the reaction path, even in liquid-phase. This has interesting implications for the evolutionary favourability of this reaction in biology.
CRISPR Off-Targets: One SNP can make all the difference
In a recent paper, we used ultra-deep sequencing to determine whether CRISPR was introducing or enriching for mutations in cancer genes.
