@johnarcher088 study on intestinal schistosomiasis around Lake Malawi, Mangochi District finalized journals.plos.org/plosntds/a… highlighting the story of intensified S mansoni transmission & upscale in local control @LSTMnews @elimin8schisto @NhmScience @unlimit_health @MLW_Programme
Great to be over in beautiful Wrocław for EMOP. If you’re about, my talk on molecular diagnosis of intestinal schistosomiasis is tomorrow (Thursday) morning!
Nice one Amber! 🐌🗺️

Our report on Pseudosuccinea columella in Lake Malawi and Lower Shire River is now in final format #alieninvasivespecies link.springer.com/article/10…
Our high throughput molecular xenomonitoring protocol, that can be used to detect Schistosoma mansoni (and other Trematoda) infections in Biomphalaria, is now published in @crpvbd ! 🐌🧬

🚨 And there WILL be a Quiz at the YPP tonight! 🚨
1. Start thinking of Team Names for 19:30 PM at 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐤'𝐬 𝐁𝐚𝐫 (L1 9BX) tonight!
2. We have no definition for the word "young" in "Young Parasitologist's Party" so if you want to quiz, get on down here!

🚨 #BSP2024 updates! 🚨
1. The Young Parasitologist's Party (YPP) is happening TONIGHT! It will be at 19:30 PM at 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐤'𝐬 𝐁𝐚𝐫 (32 Hope St, Liverpool L1 9BX). This is very close to where we're having lectures!

Really interesting couple of weeks over in Geneva working with the @WHO Department of control of Neglected Tropical Diseases, helping develop standardised procedures for countries aiming to validate having eliminated schistosomiasis as a public health problem.

Why are women affected by Female Genital Schistosomiasis hanging between #NTDs & #WomensHealth? At today's @FrontInfectDis webinar, Prof @MargaretGyapong gives an overview of #FGSchisto & its significant burden on women & girls in #Schistosomiasis endemic areas in SSA.
#BeatNTDs
Really grateful for the opportunity to talk at today's @ISNTD_Press drug discovery, development & diagnostics day! Outlining some of our work on developing/assessing molecular diagnostics for intestinal schistosomiasis. (some great pics of me here!)
Exploring molecular diagnosis of intestinal #schistosomiasis at #ISNTDd3, @johnarcher088, @LSTMnews @LSHTM & @NHM_London shares an overview of current protocols & needs, bringing an example of using data from a S. mansoni & S. haematobium co-endemic area in Malawi 🇲🇼
