The #CCMBucketHat was in Maputo, Mozambique last week with Leticia Muraro-Wildner and @linzyelton.bsky.social to undertake a clinical trials site visit at the Instituto Nacional de Saúde

The #CCMBucketHat was in Lithuania last week with @linzyelton.bsky.social & @dallasroulston.bsky.social visiting NVSPL to run a workhop on using @nanoporetech.com for surveillance of pathogens and #AMR, #metagenomics of wastewater and #16S for clinical samples! Thanks to the team for hosting us!

Don't forget, there's a plain language summary of our recently pubished paper utilising #metagenomics to identify #pathogens and #AMR in veterinary hospital environments on my blog: linzyelton628749128.wordpress.com/2025/02/17/p...

Published! Our paper utilising #metagenomics to look at #pathogens and #AMR in the veterinary environment, and how it relates to clinical infections: www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/jour...

The team at @zymoresearch.bsky.social have written a blog about the use of environmental #metagenomics in two of our recent papers, highlighting its use for #AMR #surveillance across #OneHealth settings www.bioscience.co.uk/blog/environ...

Some of the CCM clinical trials team joined the PanACEA annual meeting in Cape Town, South Africa 3-5 June. A celebration of all the work achieved, and a look forward to all of the things we can work towards with PanACEA3!

If you're working on #genomics #surveillance #OneHealth and #AMR, consider publishing your research in the Antibiotics special issue! Link: www.mdpi.com/journal/anti...

In our final video on #clinicaltrials, @linzyelton.bsky.social explains what a site coordinator does when they visit each of the labs! Coordinators work closely with the lab teams to help make sure that all work is being done according to the trial guidelines, making the data robust.

Those of you who have followed us on other platforms know that the #CCMBucketHat has been to 6 continents and over 10 countries in the last two years! We'll keep you updated with it's travels!

Next up in our series of videos on #clinicaltrials, @linzyelton.bsky.social explains what a day in the life of our laboratory scientists looks like! We work with sites all over the world and each trial is different, but with many hundreds of #tuberculosis patients enrolled, it's always busy!

(1/4) The research I led looking at #AMR in #COVID patients was highlighted at the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly at the High-level Meeting, so we thought we'd create a short video highlighting our work in Sudan and Zambia. Links to the paper and resources in thread below...

We're part of many #tuberculosis #ClinicalTrial studies, and site coordinator @linzyelton.bsky.social has made a series of videos to try and dispel the myths about clinical trials! First up, a look at OptiRimox; why (and how) it's run, and why trials are so important!

Are you interested in @nanoporetech.com sequencing? Want to sequence amplicons or do #metagenomics? Our postdoc @linzyelton.bsky.social has published a tutorial video for the Rapid PCR Barcoding (RPB114) kit to help you get started! pandora.tghn.org/sequencing/s...

Are you interested in @nanoporetech.com sequencing? Want to do whole genome sequencing? Our postdoc @linzyelton.bsky.social has published a tutorial video for the Rapid Barcoding kit (RBK114) to help you get started! pandora.tghn.org/sequencing/s...
