I'm delighted to be attending this year’s World Health Summit in beautiful Berlin 🇩🇪 Lots to learn about #globalhealth – I will discuss why the climate crisis is a health crisis and the work we're doing @wellcometrust to solve the urgent challenges. @WorldHealthSmt#WHS2023
I am honoured and very excited about being selected as CEO of @wellcometrust. I feel privileged to be able to work with Wellcome colleagues to bring discovery science and challenge driven science to society to build a healthier future https://t.co/pHz6uDfbp3
Now the final session on waste water environmental surveillance, discussing the use cases and it’s application to support public health and epidemic preparedness.
Final part of the session - fab panel of experienced researchers and public health actors discussing what is driving the increased frequency of cholera outbreaks and what are the key use cases for cholera genomic sequencing.
Helpful presentation from Josefina Campos from the @WHO Hub in Berlin discussing how to communicate about pathogen genomic sequencing for public health.
Great presentation from the Public Institute of Malawi, Miriam Nyenje, on the first locally driven whole genome sequencing on cholera, working closely with @AfricaCDC.
Good to highlight the importance of engaging your stakeholders when designing and implementing research. @wellcometrust is building our engagement approach which can be found here https://t.co/URmIDL6XSN @sarahgolding923
Start of the Pathogen Genomics track at #GCAM2023. All about how modelling can inform how we sample when applying pathogen genomic sequencing as a tool in surveillance.
This World Mental Health Day @Wellcometrust, we want to celebrate and show what can be achieved by investing in mental health science. https://t.co/IBb5WX3vxU
