Read our #preprint paper on @researchsquare: The mRNA content of plasma extracellular vesicles provides a window into the brain during cerebral malaria disease progression https://t.co/Nmrk3iC3uW
@KEMRI_Wellcome @NDMOxford @TropMedOxford, thanks to @wellcometrust
researchsquare.com
The impact of cerebral malaria on the transcriptional profiles of cerebral tissue is difficult to study using non-invasive approaches. We isolated plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs) from patients...

Best of luck to all the young people receiving results today, and a huge well done to their inspirational #teachers and #educators. π Remember, there are so many routes into science, not everyone follows the same path 𧬠#StayCurious #GenomicFutures #GCSEresults @Sangercareers

Such a beautifully shot intro explaining how the phenomenon that is @marakat is working with @NHM_London and using #genomics to understand how malaria-transmitting mosquitoes have evolved over decades. @sangerinstitute @gatesfoundation
When it comes to the worldβs deadliest animal, the past may hold answers to the future. Evolutionary geneticist @marakat at @sangerinstitute studies 80-year-old mosquito genes to understand how today's insects have evolved.

Love this initiative for all @sangerinstitute and others across @wellcomegenome to discuss ethics in science in an informal, supported way. As the title says - Just. Good. Science.
π’Introducing Just Good Science. A new space for employees across the @wellcomegenome to discuss ethical issues that arise in their day-to-day work. Head to FRED to find out more and join our first session on Wednesday 24 May. #ethics #research #science
