In our final video on #clinicaltrials, @LinzyElton.explains what a site coordinator does when they visit each of the labs! Coordinators work closely with the lab teams to help make sure that all work is being done according to the trial guidelines, making the data robust.

Next up in our series of videos on #clinicaltrials, @LinzyElton explains what a day in the life of our laboratory scientists looks like! We work with sites all over the world and each trial is different, but with many hundreds of #tuberculosis patients enrolled, it's always busy!

We're part of many #tuberculosis #ClinicalTrial studies, and site coordinator @LinzyElton has made a series of videos to try and dispel the myths about clinical trials! First up, a look at OptiRimox; why (and how) it's run, and why trials are so important!

The #CCMBucketHat made it to Kingston, Jamaica last week on a trip to run a sequencing workshop at the University of the West Indies. Phylogenetic trees were built and carbapenem resistance genes were found! Here it is at the Bob Marley museum with postdoc @LinzyElton
