Minister @patmcfaddenmp & Lord Vallance visited @GSTTnhs to see UK tech enabling rapid bedside diagnosis of respiratory infections.
The project with @OxfordNanopore is being rolled out to up to 30 NHS Trusts.
Same day @nanopore respiratory metagenomics for pneumonia; bacteria, fungi and viruses in one tube. We are approaching the holy grail of infectious diseases diagnostics https://t.co/uFWUwqcQ65
'The drainome' - just published by @jhieditor: using @nanopore metagenomics and other measures to assess the microbiome, resistome and effects of decontamination in hospital sinks. https://t.co/ylg9Gkq3b4 @simon999@madelaam@jonotter@jonathanCIDR
Congrats to @lukebsnell@madelaam for your oral presentation at #ECCMID2024#ESCMIDGlobal 👏🏼

“Ten years ago I was kicked out and forced to retire.”
Our new medicine laureate Katalin Karikó (@kkariko) told us how much it means to be awarded the Nobel Prize after a scientific career that has been full of challenges.
Ten years ago, Karikó was still doing all her experiments by hand but today she has been awarded the medicine prize for her research on mRNA, which led to the development of COVID-19 vaccines.

No podía tener otro colofón el caso Rubiales que esta Asamblea en la que un hombre, acorralado por sus propios actos machistas, acaba atacando al feminismo e implicando a la mujer en su exculpación mientras le ovacionan otros hombres. No se puede explicar mejor el patriarcado.
