ALT Quote from Dr Daniel Fulton: Thanks to an IIA award I was able to attend the SFN meeting in San Diego to present data on the new forebrain slice culure model we developed... Overall, the conference was helpful. I made new connections with industry (including GSK), and have refined my plans for the slice model and the science we can do with it. Dr Daniel Fulton, Lecturer in Glial Biology, University of Birmingham.

👇 Molnupiravir sadly not working for older and at risk adults. Also hear higher risk of viral mutation with treatment. Need better options for the immune vulnerable. So few treatments available for those with comorbidities
Just out @TheLancet
