Happy days at @escmid.bsky.social Global 2025 Vienna, presenting our posters on HDV and RSV epidemiology and viral metagenomics for community flu-like illness. Nice to meet the @esgrev-escmid.bsky.social committee too!

@tstinear.bsky.social discusses the expansion of the very successful Austrakka to “Pathogen Trakka” which will enable secure, consistent sharing of microbial genomics data within LMICs and enhance access to bioinformatics/ visualisation tools. Looks like a winner! At Institut Pasteur New Caledonia.

A routine clinical metagenomics service using nanopore sequencing @ St Thomas' Hospital ICU🇬🇧 performed extremely well - 93% sens and 94% spec cf. routine microbiol testing. Median turnaround time = 6.7h. This is the beginning of the end of conventional microbiology. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37938162/
