My med-mastodon #introduction. I’m a #nephrologist at #McMasterU in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. I also have provincial roles in multidisciplinary #CKD care and #indigenous #kidney health where my clinical and knowledge generation interests also lie. Views are my own. I live and work upon the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas.

This is what you should know: electric and hybrid cars will not save the world if we do not change our deeply ingrained habits of substituting high #mobility for poor #accessibility.
Transitioning to #electric #bicycles, electric #transit, and high accessibility development patterns is where we should be putting our money. But that would require social science research and alas that is not where the money is.
