Excellent work showing the importance of comprehensive genetic testing in people with schwannomas who do not meet clinical diagnostic criteria for NF2-related schwannomatosis #NF2 #schwannomatosis #genetictesting #variantinterpretation #NWGLH #UoM @NWGLH pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39209702/

Brilliant! Congratulations Yanick. The magic mixture of clinical medicine and science.

🏆 Congratulations to Prof Bill Newman @GeneticBill and members of the PALOH study team on winning an @OfficialUoM Making a Difference Award! 🎉 They developed the world’s first bedside genetic test to prevent babies going deaf, following research supported by Manchester BRC.

Call for expectant parents with NF1 in the UK! Please get in touch with us if you meet the following criteria: -You or your partner have NF1 -You or your partner is pregnant -You are living in the UK Please feel free to ask if you have any questions. #nf1 #IVF #PGT #pregnancy

🚨New findings from @GenesHealth @QMUL, announced tomorrow at #DUKPC24, reveal that 10,000s of South Asian people in the UK maybe receiving falsely lowered HbA1c test results, leading to delays in diagnoses of #Type2Diabetes #HealthInequalities #Diabetes diabetes.org.uk/about-us/news-…

Very pleased to share our latest manuscript: "Public preferences for pharmacogenetic testing in the NHS: Embedding a discrete choice experiment within service design to better meet user needs" Published today in @BritPharmSoc's BJCP journal. bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

We have a vacancy for a B5 Research Practitioner to join our genetics research team🧬@MFT_SaintMarys @MFT_Research mft.nhs.uk/careers/search…

Great day at the Great Northern Research Conference promoting and recruiting to the NIHR Bioresource #GNRC2023 @ManchesterBRC @NIHRBioResource @NIHRCRN_gman

Genes & Health Study helps highlight trust as most important factor for British South Asians participating in genetic research @GenesHealth @QMUL 📰🔗 noclor.nhs.uk/genes-health-s…

A team of our researchers have started a new pilot study looking at hearing tests for vestibular schwannoma in the hope of making it easier to preserve hearing. #InternationalBrainTumourAwarenessWeek @NCAresearchNHS @SNOMAN_Lab gjbrainresearch.org/2023/11/02/stu…

Not my usual days work, but really enjoyed meeting the team @tamesideradio and spreading the word about research local to the area

Had chance to watch our new video yet, produced in collaboration with the NHS NW #BAME Assembly? For more info and to watch, visit nw-gmsa.nhs.uk/about-us/Equal… or YouTube youtu.be/epjXbaQCx6I?si… #Genomics #PatientCare #Healthcare #Professionals #HealthInequalities @GeneticBill

This was so much fun, one of my favourite engagement events so far! A well deserved award for Sandra ⭐️ It also highlighted the need for more investment in research into CYP mental health 🫶🏻

Excited to be at #BioTechX for the next few days with @VidehaSharma. We'll be speaking about new technologies and strategies to implement pharmacogenetics. I'll be kicking off speaking about our collaboration with @genedriveplc developing novel point of care platforms.

What a great morning over at @BoltonUni with out colleagues from @NIHRCRN_gman talking to students about a range of opportunities to take part in health and care research, including @manchestergenes, @GLADStudy and @LonelinessStudy.

Today we’re at the University of Manchester speaking to the nurses of tomorrow about careers in research @NIHRCRN_gman @FBMH_UoM

Our latest @EastLondonGenes preprint explores diabetes misclassification in British Bangladeshis and Pakistanis. Fabulous work from @TimingLiu, Alagu Sankareswaran and Gordon Paterson. With great colleagues @hilsomartin, Giriraj Chandak, @YajnikYa9 @RAOram.

🌟🌟🌟WOW! 🌟🌟🌟 We are so excited to have recruited 5000 women to our BiBBS study! Thank-you to every single person who has taken part you are all amazing!
