How awesome! Bacteria can be used to turn Blood Group A into Blood Group O - great for transfusions! 💉 #giveblood #donation #science #biology #medicine https://t.co/HSuGv38xJW

My new post is up, and it is about research published in Nature which prevents cell division (i.e. sending the cells to 'sleep'). Please have a read 🙂 #cancer #research #cancerresearch #medicine #biology #blog https://t.co/w3tpboRkss

Fancy a five-minute lunchtime read? Read the link below about a new approved drug for reoccurring malaria #malaria #disease #drug #cure #blog #health https://t.co/T1f0hbbla5

[Amy Farr @amyjfarrty]

@RemingtonNevin @QuinismFdn Thank you for posting this link; it had been a very insightful read. I would agree with you that a robust risk assessment is required before the approval of ANY drug, or that it is at least administered with caution.

[Amy Farr @amyjfarrty]

The drug Tafenoquine has been approved for treatment of recurring malaria! Link is below #malaria #fda #treatment #disease #cure #parasite #research https://t.co/T1f0hbbla5
