4 million people will be diagnosed with skin/mucosal squamous cell cancer this year. @UQ_News Dr @ChandraJanin and her group at TRI work with doctors/industry/scientists to better understand the cancers and develop new treatments and diagnostics. @UQHealth https://t.co/qrXJtbDrcR

TRI-based researchers are advancing work in areas including childhood brain cancer, melanoma, immunity and drug-resistant infections, with support from the @nhmrc. Researchers from @UQ_News, @QUT and @MaterResearch are among the chief investigators. https://t.co/SFFqrkrGIq

Thank you, @7NewsBrisbane and @MarlinaWhop, for sharing details of microbiome research from @ThePopeLab at @QUT's @CMR_QUT. They are developing a probiotic for cows to reduce the amount of methane they burp up. https://t.co/YDuIDUfkTz

[7NEWS Queensland @7NewsBrisbane]

We're all familiar with probiotics to improve our gut health but a team of Queensland scientists are developing one for cattle. They're aiming to produce more productive animals and fewer greenhouse gas emissions. @MarlinaWhop

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

Microbiome research at TRI is playing a role in human health and may also help cut greenhouse gas emissions. @QUT's @CMR_QUT has spawned spin-out company Bovotica, developing a probiotic for cows to reduce the amount of methane they burp up. @ThePopeLab https://t.co/YDuIDUfkTz

TRI is a global leader in the effective translation of research and innovation into improved healthcare.
But research conducted at TRI also helps to fight climate change. Find out about the work of TRI-based @ThePopeLab and Gene Tyson from @QUT @CMR_QUT
today on @7NewsBrisbane.

This is a natural killer (NK) cell attacking a tumour cell.
It's part of research from @Fer_NK_nando. His @UQ_News team at TRI has developed a new antibody that activates NK cells to recognise and attack a protein found on many aggressive cancers. https://t.co/UZ9xsC0dps

“It’s a natural fit for the work that we do.” @sanofi Prof Cameron Simmons, Head of the Translational Science Hub, sees TRI’s new facility ENTRI as the natural place to be. ENTRI is due to open in early 2026 and is proudly funded by the @QldGov and TRI. https://t.co/YegEq4qx6Q

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

Global company @sanofi will be the first tenant in TRI’s new facility ENTRI. Sanofi will stimulate the biomedical sector through expertise in product development/clinical research/commercialisation. ENTRI is due to open in 2026, funded by @QldGov and TRI. https://t.co/YegEq4qx6Q

Congratulations, TRI-based A/Prof @BockNat from @QUT, winner of the Queensland Women in STEM Breaking Barriers Award. A/Prof Bock merges materials science and cancer biology to improve outcomes for people living with incurable cancer. https://t.co/UIaGnJE3EV @qldmuseum

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

Celebrating trailblazing women in STEM. @qldmuseum has announced finalists of the Queensland Women in STEM Prize, including TRI-based A/Prof @BockNat from @QUT. She merges materials science and biology to improve outcomes for people with incurable cancer. https://t.co/VtsBv0ru0k

[Translational Research Institute Australia @TRI_info]

A genetic mutation that causes melanoma can lie dormant in healthy skin, TRI-based researchers from @UQ_News have found. The Finding could improve screening of disease-prone areas. https://t.co/vDKOzi7Q8t @TheStarkLab @AnotherKatieLee @hpsoyer @BrJDermatol
