The most important things to consider with biotech companies are 1. Do they have stickers? and 2. Are the stickers laptop-worthy? Luckily I'm here to help, and have collaborated with Forge Genetics to ensure your laptops are receiving the best stickers possible

2. Did you know that if you experience #migraine, in a minority of people it can progress into a chronic illness? I didn't know this, and neither do many others, including healthcare professionals. Migraine needs to be taken more seriously to help more people avoid this!
A comic titled "My first time seeing a
doctor about migraine"- In the first panel,
a girl on the left is saying "I have incredibly
painful migraines 3 times a week", with
a doctor on the right saying "Have you
tried drinking water? Do you know about
paracetamol?" and the girl responds
"Yes...". In the next panel, the doctor says
"It's not worth giving you preventative
treatment- read this printout from the
NHS website instead!" with the girl looking
concerned.

1. The theme of this UKDHM is Disability, Children, and Youth, so I'll start with this one! Migraine can be really confusing and scary when you are a child, and may be passed off as "just a headache". But you can get help! Read Joel's story: migrainetrust.org/migraine-in-...
A comic strip titled "Migraine in childhood/
adolescence". The first panel shows
children playing, with the speech bubble
"come out to play!", and on the right a girl
lying in bed with an icepack on her head
and the speech bubble "Nope". The second
panel shows a girl leaving her friend and
getting on to a bus, with the speech bubble
"Sorry I need to go, I'm starting to lose
my eyesight". The third panel shows a girl
stood in front of a school play wearing
angel wings, with the speech bubble "I'm
going to throw up".

Hello Bluesky! I'm a microbial genomics PhD student interested in how plasmids can spread between strains and environments (One Health!)- especially if they are carrying AMR and virulence genes. I've been working on K. pne, E. coli and S. aureus. Here is a pic of my dog 🐕

From James Horton (not here). James and myself have recently penned ✍️ a review article for Microbiology titled Mutation Bias and Adaptation in Bacteria: www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/jour... A short 🧵 on why we should care about mutation bias below (1/7)

Mutation bias and adaptation in bacteria
Genetic mutation, which provides the raw material for evolutionary adaptation, is largely a stochastic force. However, there is ample evidence showing that mutations can also exhibit strong biases, wi...
