Thank you @ESCMID for the best #ESCMIDGlobal and the generous Young Investigator Award. Big thanks to @SouthamptonBRC and @UoS_Medicine for the support for our clinical trials.
ALT Nathan presenting trial data showing molecular point-of-care testing reduces isolation room use by getting patients who don’t have diarrhoea out of these rooms.
ALT Conclusion: Molecular point-of-care testing improves patient care in many ways. Acknowledgements to colleagues, Southampton institutions, and our patients.
#ESCMID Young Investigator Award winner @nathanbrendish getting to point of point-of-care testing, the future of #POCT, and its importance for patient care. #ESCMID #ECCMID2024
