Biomiq

This is a can't-miss conversation every trauma clinician should hear. 👀 ⬇️

Tomorrow morning at the Trauma Association of Canada Annual Conference (TAC 2026), Biomiq is presenting a panel discussion with an impressive lineup. It's called: "Trauma in the Age of Resistance: How Modern Conflict is Redefining Combat Casualty Care and Wound Management'.

Modern battlefields have changed wound care. Delayed evacuation, contaminated blast injuries, and multidrug-resistant organisms are forcing frontline teams to rethink infection control from the ground up. The lessons coming out of Ukraine are already reshaping civilian trauma practice.

Four impressive and diverse voices at one table:

🔹 Lt. Col. Dr. Roman Kuziv, MD, JD
Commander, Medical Forces & Sustainment Group East, Armed Forces of Ukraine. Surgeon, combat-baptized with the 10th Mountain Assault Brigade "Edelweiss", and a leading voice in military medical analytics.
🔹 Hailie Uren
Australian clinical pharmacist and consultant to Ukraine's Ministry of Health on antimicrobial resistance. Principal investigator on multi-phase AMR research in large-scale combat operations.
🔹 Dr. Eric Rasmussen, MD, MDM, FACP
CEO, Infinitum Humanitarian Systems. Former US Navy Fleet Surgeon (Third Fleet) and Joint Task Force Surgeon.
🔹 Dr. Jeff Williams, PhD, BVSc, MRCVS
Former Professor Emeritus of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, Michigan State University. Foundational researcher on HOCl.

📅 Thursday, April 23, 2026 --> TOMORROW(!)
🕢 7:30 AM MDT
📍 Calgary Hyatt Regency Hotel

If you're at TAC 2026 this week, be sure to make room in your morning for this one.

And don't forget to visit the Biomiq booth #16 & #17 to learn about (and try!) some exciting innovations in trauma care.

People who use drugs face a disproportionately high burden of acute and chronic wounds—and too often, care is complicated by delayed presentation, stigma, and structural barriers.

New Canadian guidance from Nurses Specialized in Wound, Ostomy and Continence Canada (NSWOCC®), the Harm Reduction Nurses Association (HRNA), and Ontario Network of People Who Use Drugs (ONPUD) offers a practical framework for wound clinicians working in hospitals, outreach, and community settings.

We pulled out some of the key takeaways that should be top of mind for clinicians when it comes to day-to-day wound assessment and topical planning, and are sharing them with you in our latest blog article.
