Exosome Superfoods

All plant and animal cells produce extracellular vesicles, including exosomes. When eaten, these can be absorbed to reach our organs intact and may have direct consequences for our health.

End of day 2 #smallnewworld fantastic meeting. Take home for me- lots of potential for biomarkers, diagnosis and therapeutics. Are EVs messengers, mediators or directors? Lots of applications to disease. Excited to see future developments. 🤯🔬Thank you all

Great day 1 at #smallnewworld EV meeting. Loving the discussion and challenge. Take home from an EV newbie- conditions and characterisation of EVs are important. What is an EV corona? How do you differentiate between a soft and hard one? 🔬🧫

.@wellcometrust ambition is for the research we fund to be open, engaged, equitable & efficient.

To achieve this we need to shift research practice - not just that of our researchers but our own as a funder from design of funding call to research evaluation.

[Jonathan Best (He/him) 🌈🔬😷💙 @Best40J]

Great work by @ProfGaelle and team @Cilla_Harries, @Psych_Tush @ana_wheelock looking at peer review for funding decisions. Belated congratulations- more work like this needs to be funded. #reimaginefundingculture https://t.co/Ofy4OMYRf4
