Just published in @TheLancet! We show that the capsule sponge improves Barrett's surveillance, helping prioritize high-risk patients for endoscopy & offering a more efficient, patient-friendly approach for low-risk individuals. https://t.co/Fs5vlq6yxT

"There has been much progress in academia in terms of supporting parents with parental leave, and menopause is finally starting to be openly discussed. Yet, there is still a substantial gap in how we support researchers whose health status changes drastically"
