It was an absolute blast having our close collaborators from @CASUSscience today - a fruitful day with lab practicals & 6 microscopes built to be deployed to multiple sites for #UTI diagnosis in the near future. Exciting times! Looking forward to another stimulating day tomorrow!

Huge step forwards for primary care treatment. Thank you Connie Dimsdale from the iNews for this article. UK sufferers should be able to have Hiprex prescribed by their GP from December.

Are you or someone you know interested in a PhD with a focus on biofilms and adressing antimicrobial resistance? @theevanslab has posted an opportunity with fantastic people who are the prominent experts in the field.
Please share with your network 🙏

Prof. Eleanor Stride has put together a short #teacher resource video explaining how microbubbles encapsulating drugs work.
An easy to understand example of drug delivery challenges for cancer therapies. The same microbubbles are studied to adress AMR.

Elephant in the room that needs addressing: Inadequate treatment of Index UTI, shorter courses (no evidence for less is more!), cycling, LD prophylaxis, no follow up appt to pick up recurrences (up to 30%), reliance on outdated testing and dismissal of symptoms with terminology!

Peter of #BIIG won the Best Abstract in Basic Science at #IUGA2024! 👏👏👏
His presentation on a host immune-centred approach to uncovering causative pathogens in #ChronicUTI inspired a flurry of discussion surrounding the disease pathogenesis and treatment. Well done, Peter!!

Overall, I’m really impressed with this work but look forward to real-world data - and parallel advances in more sensitive ID strategies whether based on host or microbe

...it's great to see UTI a focus, given its huge prevalence (~400 mil/year) and AMR burden (~260K deaths/yr). It gives ID (5 top pathogens only) for 10^4 cfu/ml which is less sensitive than the (already not hugely sensitive) MSU, but antimicrobial profile in 45 min.
