Check out our latest work led by the very talented PhD student @MarinaPapaiak on the genomic diversity of soil-transmitted helminths. Lots of neat results and implications for molecular diagnostics moving forward. Lots more coming from us in this space! 👇
Our preprint is now out on BioRxiv! #STHs #worms #diagnostics #helminths biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… ⁉️ How are parasitic worms linked globally, and how reliable are our current diagnostic targets and qPCR assays? Let me take you through a journey 🧵 1/
