It was a pleasure getting to meet the team and discussing great ideas plus insights 🧪🧬 Heriot-Watt University Didida Global Frugal Diagnostics Network (GFDx)
I am in Ghana with the Global Frugal Diagnostics Network (GFDx) for our first hands-on workshop! We had an amazing first day already. Setting up for second day now.
Progress in malaria control in some countries in sub-Saharan Africa is challenged by several new threats, including artemisinin-resistant P. falciparum parasites with deletions in hrp2 or hrp3. Read the full Perspective by Brian Greenwood, M.D., from London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine:
🎧 Wondering why DIDIDA is important in sub-Saharan Africa?
The DIDIDA project was recently featured on the BBC Tech Life podcast! Listen to the interviews: Jon Cooper of UofG Engineering, Harriet Mpairwe of MRC/UVRI and LSHTM Uganda Research Unit, Dr Gregory Ganda of Kisumu County

We are looking for an enthusiastic Postdoc to join my lab Cambridge Stem Cell Institute to investigate how whipworms manipulate host intestinal stem cell niche remodelling using single-cell and spatial RNA sequencing and state-of-the-art microscopy: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/37564/. Please-retweet!
Been invited for a #UgandaIndependenceDay event scheduled 2pm and arrived in time, just been informed the event starts at 5pm, had forgotten about Ugandan time 😂 for being #simplyUgandan
After miracidia hatching, we proceeded to infect the snails with miracidia of Schistosoma mansoni which we collected from stool samples.
🔜the snails will be shedding cercariae.
Kudos to the team! PROSSY KABUUBI Emmanuella Driciru
Miracidia hatching is an important process in acquiring cercariae to be used in the Controlled infection model. PROSSY KABUUBI our Lab technologist had a go at miracidia hatching from samples collected from the field, which went really well!
Deep soul-to-soul connection ❤️
