Yes! Data science + medicine + fantastic people = Precision Medicine

My first tweet - hooray! Excited to share my current PhD research at #TropMed22. I’ll be discussing our group’s efforts to sequence malaria variant surface antigens from clinical samples. Young investigator Session E and Poster Session A. Come say trick-or-treat!

Variant surface antigen serological responses are higher in asymptomatic infection than acute clinical #malaria infection. More details ⁦ASTMH⁩ poster 957 #IamTropMed #TropMed22 ⁦UMSOM Center for Vaccine Dev. & Global Health⁩ ⁦University of Maryland School of Medicine⁩ ⁦Mark Travassos⁩

Dual binding PfEMP1s are associated with severe #malaria. Poster 1197 #TropMed22 ⁦Emily Stucke⁩ ⁦Mark Travassos⁩ ⁦UMSOM Center for Vaccine Dev. & Global Health⁩ ⁦Institute for Genome Sciences⁩

As CEO of ⁦ASTMH⁩ I am passionate about showing the flags. Not a random mix but in fact intentional. These are flags of countries represented at @astmh. Note US flag in the mix, not first or bigger than any other country. We are all important and all are respected. 🌍

Dr. Emily Stucke presents her research on RNA sequencing using custom capture probes which reveals a parasite antigen expression signature in Malian children with severe malaria #TropMed22

Thank you, Miriam - it’s much obliged!

Clinical trials are the primary way to find out if a new treatment, like a new drug, diet, medical device, or behavioral intervention, is safe and effective for people. Want to learn more about current CVD trials? Click the link below to learn more! bit.ly/3uGhgPS
