Hidden microbes, hidden risks!

A new study from our researchers reveals how wastewater holds vital clues to the spread of AMR.

This is the first genome-level AMR map of its kind in Wales - paving the way for national monitoring frameworks.

💧 Wastewater surveillance just got a quantum upgrade.

New research from UCL & Bangor Uni introduces nanodiamond-powered dipsticks that detect pathogens in just 2 hours - no lab needed.

Perfect for near-source outbreak detection in low-resource settings.
