Amazing workshop!
I’m organizing another Signaling Workshop this July for #PhDs #ECRs & @Y_ECCO_IBD!
✅ Interdisciplinary: #IBD, #cancer, #microbiome, #organoids, #multiomics
✅ Networking: Leading experts from diverse fields
✅ Group projects

It was a pleasure to see past lab members, mentors, collaborators & colleagues last Friday & it was an honour to receive the Lister Prize which it will allows us uncover #ILC role in #IBD using #organoids @kingsdentistry @KingsCollegeLon @ListerInstitute

A major scoping review led by @WHO has highlighted an urgent need for research and thorough modelling to better understand the effects of #climatechange on #NTDs and #malaria, to build effective mitigation strategies. Read: bit.ly/3UTKKWN
#BeatNTDs #endmalaria
Exciting news! The WHO Task Team, led by @SoceFallBirima launched a major review on climate change's impact on #NTDs & #malaria. We need urgent research to protect our progress. Check out the findings and share! 🌍🌡️ #ClimateChange #NTDs #Malaria #GlobalHealth #WHO lnkd.in/eD7WNudm

Remember, again, inflation may be down, but prices are much higher than they were 3 years ago. Prices are not coming down. They are rising more slowly.
The big shift in prices has come via a huge rise in the relative cost of essentials.
Energy is up by 90% and food up by 31%, compared with overall prices rising 22%.
Importantly, while *inflation* is falling, high prices will be with us for the foreseeable future.

The WHO roadmap for NTDs sets out ambitious targets for disease control and elimination by 2030.
Articles in this supplement present novel ways in which NTD modeling can help accelerate the achievement and sustainability of these targets.
