🚨 NEW VIDEO DROP 🚨
We love supporting our customers with complex sequencing projects! Take a look behind-the-scenes at a unique project from Adam Robert’s team at LSTM!

They collected 125 samples —from lakes to benches & bins—to build a microbial map of Liverpool 🏙️🦠

Grateful for the chance to present in the Knocking Out #AMR forum at @microbiologysociety.org annual conference #Microbio25

Looking forward to building on this work with colleagues in Malawi for positive public health impact

The HUGS team from LSTM were at the Royal Society earlier this month for a focused meeting on hybrid schistosomes in Africa.

Improved disease control in animals - a tough but crucial step towards elimination.

We wrote a short blog of our activities there: www.lstmed.ac.uk/news-events/...
