Great to work with the @theWCRC PPI research partners in a fantastic session focusing on how ECRs within FMHLS @SwanseaUni can effectively involve patients and the public in their research #ECRs @SwanseaMedicine
@theWCRC PPI Research Partners engage with ECRs at @SwanseaUni on the benefits of public inclusion in research: Read more ➡️ https://t.co/5qXT05RfVj

@evilarsan @ITSR_Group @hwest01 @HurleyJoanna @Becky_Truscott @Nickjonesimmuno @SDolwani @Cellesce @AndyLatchford @ResearchWales @WalesGenePark @BCWcharity We show here that recurrent somatic coding variants in PIGA are associated with loss of GPI anchors in duodenal epithelial cells in FAP and MAP adenomas. These findings offer new insights into duodenal tumorigenesis in these patients. #genomics #organoids
