Happy International Cat Day!

William Williams cat 'Long Crier' is overseeing the production of our soon to be launched binocular indirect ophthalmoscope.

Did you know our ophthalmoscopes work for animals just as well as for humans?

Amazing job @MphaDSP @hannah_rickman and @MLW_Programme team - prevalence studies are a lot of work but am sure data will be worth it!

[Mphatso D.S. Phiri @MphaDSP]

What's the epidemiology of #TB infection in adolescents & adults? No population data from Malawi, few in Africa, as TB/HIV burden changes.

Very pleased to finish recruiting ~3,000 participants in Blantyre, Malawi yesterday, to answer ❓.

@petermacp Me too - I love all her books, her writing completely transports me into her worlds. I was amazed tho that some people in the US have to rely on fly-in ‘health camps’ - made me grateful for the NHS!

Also love lots of your other choices so will check out the ones I haven’t read!

[Helena Feasey @HelenaFeasey]
