New online course on invasive fungal infection from @bsacandjac.bsky.social
www.futurelearn.com/courses/inva...
Shaun Yang, PhD, D(ABMM), FIDSA, MLS(ASCP) talks about how his team developed a test to identify fungi, and how they utilize it to diagnose, make treatment adjustments, and rule out hospital acquired infections. #IDsky #medsky

Excited to share our recent article on the βB-indexβ in invasive pulmonary aspergillosis!
πIn addition to the D-index, blastemia is an important prognostic factor to consider!

Did you know..75% of wine has significant levels of azole antifungals in it? (German wine anyway)

Great to present feasibility study on AI to detect invasive pulmonary mould infections from CT scans at #BIASpring2025.
Proof-of-concept but need to develop surrounding infrastructure to develop this and other AI projects within NHS.

Histoplasmosis remains an important cause of AIDS-related deaths in many regions
Histoplasma antigen tests are now cheap, accessible, and can be done at POC
Are such assays ready to be used for routine screening of patients with advanced HIV?
We have thoughts π€
