Since March, several unregistered ‘treatments’ for COVID-19 have been advertised to the public. 👀 Who regulates these ads in Australia? 💊 Have any slipped through the cracks? @chrisrudge @StemCellsUoM @StemCellsAus

The TGA has been vigilant in policing advertisements for unproven COVID-19 ‘treatments’, but have some been missed ask University of Melbourne experts.

There are currently limited therapies for inner ear disorders 🦻 but an exciting collaboration between A/Prof @Ariyabry and A/Prof Alain Dabdoub @Sunnybrook is out to change that.
A/ Professor Bryony Nayagam @Ariyabry @UniMelbMDHS will collaborate with new academic 🔬 and industry 🦻 partners, to further research into hearing and balance and advance development of effective treatments for their disorders. Find out more: https://t.co/HwNqLZNTl1

Our paper on applying targeted RNA sequencing (CaptureSeq) to samples with small numbers of cells is now out in RNA biology. We find CaptureSeq is even more useful on these "mini-bulk" samples than on bulk libraries. /1 https://t.co/m5ubSakJ9w

RNA-seq is the standard method for profiling gene expression in many biological systems. Due to the wide dynamic range and complex nature of the transcriptome, RNA-seq provides an incomplete charac...

Identifying/comparing cell types in #organoids is tricky, esp. in #scRNAseq data. My #ISSCR2020 poster (S-II) describes using #MachineLearning classifier scPred to identify cells in #kidneyorganoids allowing multi-dataset comparison. If that interests you please check it out!
