There is an aggressor: Russia. There is a victim: Ukraine. We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago—and to keep doing so. By “we,” I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others. Thank you to…
Delighted to see our work published. Read about our recent study @unibirmingham below and how we hope to translate this to a new treatment for the prevention of stomach cancer.
The discovery of 'leaking' bacteria across stomach lining in pre-cancer could be the missing link in #GastricCancer development, according to @unibirmingham researchers. The study opens an exciting new avenue of research into preventing #StomachCancer. ➡️bit.ly/3EQhqfx
Very proud supervisor; so well deserved Harriet! Watch this space for our recently accepted paper to learn more about our work on the gastric microbiome in gastric cancer
So happy to share that I passed my PhD viva yesterday with minor corrections 🎉 A huge thank you to @kim_hardie & @hall_lab for being fantastic examiners, @DrMicroMandroid, @krobinson204, @CShannonLowe & Jeff for being great supervisors ❤️ I can’t believe I am finally #PhDone 🥂
