#Antimicrobialawarenessweek tune in to see how we are tackling AMR in liver disease- 2 huge global health challenges! #livertwitter @LancetGastroHep @DebbieShawcros1 @JonelTrebicka @JasmohanBajaj @MicrobPredict #EASLstudio @ThomasBerg24 @PROMISE_Trial @AleksanderKrag @UKAMREnvoy
The amazing panel @DebbieShawcross1 @JonelTrebicka @JasmohanBajaj @DrLAEdwards offers best insights into the extent of the invisible threat that lies within and how to overcome this challenge – #EASLstudio today live – all days on demand –🔗 easl.eu/easl-studio-episode/… #LiverTwitter
Pregnancy fast‑forwards changes in the oral microbiome, making oral care more vital than ever. Nurture your microbiome with a diverse, nutrient‑rich diet & good dental hygiene, supporting immune health for parent & child. #OralHealth #Microbiome #HealthForAll @kingsdentistry
Dental problems often arise or get worse during pregnancy, and a new study hints that rapid changes to the oral microbiome at this time could be at least partly to blame newscientist.com/article/250…

As bacteria become resistant to existing antibiotics, we are running out of drugs to treat infectious diseases. This is a problem that Nobel Prize laureate Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin, foresaw already in 1945. Today the hunt is on to find new antibiotics with the potential to save millions of lives.

“The biggest challenge in antimicrobial resistance is the resistance of humans to change” – a key takeaway from the panellist discussion #AMR #GlobalHealth #PolicyChange. That concludes Day 1 of #ESCMIDGlobal 2025 – what is on your schedule for tomorrow?
Exciting start at education Friday @ #ESCMIDGlobal and later #AMR Science-Policy Forum 💪🏻 much work to do to tackle AMR Global Health crisis! - inspiring to see so many scientists & healthcare professionals rolling up their sleeves to address AMR!
Join us later today in Hall 4 from 15:00-16:45 CEST for the opening session of the #AMR Science-Policy Forum at #ESCMIDGlobal 2025! Take the opportunity to explore how science can inform policy and the implementation of UNGA targets on AMR.

Take a look at how Genomic Proximity Mapping™ (GPM) accelerates your discovery. We’ll build your new map of the genome to help you build the future of #cancerbiology.
GPM pinpoints known & novel chromosomal anomalies in cell lines, blood—and even #FFPE samples. Here’s how:

1. This is 7 yrs old Tom. One day he told his schoolmates that his uncle was Superman. Kids made fun of him and no one believed him. Then his mother made a call, and asked her brother-in-law to take him to school one day. And Henry Cavill, of course, was delighted to do so

Myself and my fellow Patient Volunteer John at yesterday’s @LiverTrust Love Your Liver Roadshow in Liverpool.
It was very clear talking to members of the public attending just how much impact the @BBCPanorama program Binge Drinking and Me has had

People with liver disease have altered mouth and gut bacteria (known as the #microbiome) - which increases their #antimicrobialresistance.
