Our new paper (and 1st since I joined @LifeSciWestmin ) on drug repurposing for the neglected human infection whipworm, with Avril Coghlan @Berriman_mb4 @mariaduco@gr10_rinaldi : A drug repurposing screen for whipworms informed by comparative genomics https://t.co/PUdmb4NaTq
Happy to share my first preprint since joining @LifeSciWestmin. Lead by Avril Coghlan and @Berriman_mb4 (Sanger, Glasgow) we used comparative genomics to predict drugs with potential for repurposing against whipworm infection

Really appreciate the clear statement and advice from @AddisonsUK clinical panel regarding vaccination priority groups for Addison's disease - very helpful
Links are inc in our "Coronavirus Vulnerable Adult Advice" statement by the Addison's Clinical Advisory Panel 👇
This gives you the info to pass onto your medic, so they have more details about providing you with an emergency hydrocortisone injection.

Really recommend this new paper from @_JamesIrving_
- very impressed by the creative way that it integrates many different techniques (EM, SAXS, crystallography) and datasets by using modelling to assess which antitrypsin polymer structure fits best with the evidence
Our paper is out - to address the question of the structure of alpha-1-antitrypsin polymers in a person who carries two copies of the Z allele, we went to the source: the liver itself. #antitrypsin#A1ATD@UCLRespiratory@ismb_london@AlphaFriend https://t.co/SxBQdoAyBq
Our new preprint on screening methods for mosquito larvicides and detecting resistance - even with a mobile phone - with Steve Buckingham @QM_SBCS, @Beth_Poulton
and @LSTM_VectorGene from @LSTMnews and Ben Miller and Rachel McKendry from @isenseIRC

Automated phenotyping of mosquito larvae enables high-throughput screening for novel larvicides and smartphone-based detection of larval insecticide resistance https://t.co/VEhc0mu4vV #bioRxiv
From a special issue in @BeilsteinInst#BJOC on open science in chemistry organised by @MatToddChem who is part of the pioneering @O_S_M team doing such great work for malaria. Would be really great to set up a similar Open Science programme for neglected helminth diseases! (3/3)
highlight many open-source screening methods and genomic tools and also discuss the success of open drug discovery initiatives such as the @MedsforMalaria Pathogen Box (2/3)

Conductor meets composer. Christopher Wood dropped in to hear us rehearse his Holy Week. Luckily he liked what he heard! We’re all ready for its debut performance on 1 April in Waltham Abbey.
Our paper on fast screening methods for parasitic worms and C. elegans with @ruthaforman@kathelse@ProfJBMatthews is now published https://t.co/vQq4pk3Lyj Includes screening of the great open science Pathogen Box from @MedsforMalaria All code free to use https://t.co/UsgUIIwwlH
our paper exploring the potential of xray tomography for understanding parasite biology is out now with @kathelse and @ProfAndrewMac https://t.co/6rlwdcDsZp
