.@jmcvernon closing @PRISM_CRE with the “beautiful shiny rainbow that comes out of a prism”: #SPECTRUM. Like prism2 but now with decision science, health economics, policy & governance, & social sciences. Themes: 1. Endemic 2. Emerging 3. Drug resistant 4. Vector borne infections
.@nicgeard wrapping up the @PRISM_CRE parts of the conference by a “Celebration of PRISM2 achievements”. Over 260 papers, 5 new CREs, many grants, researchers trained... a massively productive 5 years. Much engagement with policy makers, making the research more effective too
.@apresanis from @Cambridge_Uni @MRC_BSU is giving a fascinating invited talk at the @TheDohertyInst @unimelb on “Value of Information in a Bayesian evidence synthesis to estimate HIV prevalence”, having stayed after the @PRISM_CRE conference.
What about in ferret models? Want to determine period of suscetibility to secondary bacterial infections after influenza infection
Coinfected ferrets display greater number of clinical signs compared with animals infected with influenza or bacteria alone
Symposium on health security in Indonesia happening now at the Ian Potter Auditorium @unimelb Come and join us!
After months of bad news, the international army of people who have been working for decades to eradicate #polio will likely have something to celebrate this week. A global commission is expected to announce that type 3 #polioviruses have been eradicated. statnews.com/2019/10/21/dec…
Stark reminder of the impact of poverty on population structure in Africa. Data presented at Australian Influenza Symposium by Belinda Herring (WHO Regional Office, DRC) #AIS2019Bris @WHOCCFluMelb
The risk of TB reactivation among infected children increases as they reach the age of adolescence. BCG vaccination history seems to increase the risk of TB disease reactivation among adults exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. bit.ly/2YReXej
Our first #ACENTD CRE Meeting. 9 neglected tropical diseases, 7 countries, 4 research themes! Looking forward to how we will all work together to build capacity in NTD research! @KirbyInstitute @telethonkids @MCRI_for_kids @TheDohertyInst @CurtinUni @MenziesResearch
Louise Rowntree from @unimelb on generating immunity to severe influenza in Indigenous Australians #AIS2019Bris
Indigenous Australians are more severely affected by influenza compared to the rest of the population
Memory T cells can provide cross-strain immunity and reduce severity of influenza, recognise influenza peptides presented by HLA molecules. Indigenous Australians express universal HLA alleles at a low frequency. HLA-A*34:01 allele highly represented in indigenous Australians
Damage is dependent on endothelial cells producing a soluble factor associated with pro-inflammatory response.
In vivo model of hyperglycaemia - leptin-receptor deficient mice: Diabetic mice associated with more severe influenza, loss of tight junction integrity, trend toward increased pro-inflammatory response
Generous support over the @Telethon7 weekend will pave the way for researchers to make single-shot, life-long flu vaccines a reality @telethonkids @PCHFWA thewest.com.au/news/telethon/…

How little Lucy’s legacy will save lives
A heart-wrenching video from the devastated family of a two-year-old WA girl who died from influenza could help save the lives of youngsters for years to come. WATCH THE EMOTIONAL VIDEO
CLOSING SOON: PhD position (MONTPELLIER, France) Vaginal microbiota dynamics (circular viruses and plasmids) with Samuel Alizon and Vincent Foulongne at @UMontpellier @CHU_Montpellier. Start by Dec 2019. More details: iddjobs.org/jobs/vaginal-m…
Roundtable discussion on how to improve influenza surveillance in Australia and will it impact outcomes? Frances Birrell, Nigel Crawford, @CraigBDalton, Janet Englund, Robin Gilmour, @MackayIM #AIS2019Bris
From department of health point of view, what is important? NC, @CraigBDalton: Potential burden of patients in ICU, burden in hospitals, the need to change public events at late notice and with confidence
