You need to check the rules for each post - it depends for each scheme whether it does/doesn't cover international PhD fees.

Nice work - consistent with literature esp. that if women ask the first question it is more likely for further women to ask questions.

Did you record duration of speaking? There is some evidence that men not only speak more they speak longer (which might mean their questions had comments in....)

To inform a UK grant application. Similar survey circulated in other countries to guide their applications.

This was funded by @wellcometrust.bsky.social so I just don't understand how this is not open access??

A beautiful example of why when assessing growth of a pathogen in a cell culture line that you need to know if the drug is actually just killing the cell line.

For example T.pallidum doesn't grow in culture when you use ivermectin BUT that's because ivermectin is killing the cell line.

There is exciting progress in identifying human cell lines which could replace rabbit cells in the culture model & could therefore more accurately recapitulate human syphilis infection.

We can use the in-vitro cultivation system to explore the pathogenesis of T.pallidum.

This is helping us understand the interactions between epithelial cells and the pathogen which is critical to transmission and pathogenesis.

Slowly slowly itching towards vaccines...

The schema developed by Sheila Lukehart (queen of syphilis immunology) highlights the key role of cellular immune responses alongside humoral responses in controlling and clearing T.pallidum.
