🆕A newly published piece in @natureportfolio.nature.com examines the NeoSep1 trial expansion led by GARDP
Aiming to enrol 3,000+ newborns across Africa and Asia, the trial will generate evidence that clinicians can use immediately, leading to better outcomes for newborns.

A great milestone with real public health impact! 🎉
Our education and outreach programme for antimicrobial researchers would be nothing without the generous, voluntary contributions of countless leading experts.

🔴💥 Session Seven moment
“From erections to resurrection — not womb to tomb.”
With that striking opening, Dr Teodora Elvira C. Wi reframes the conversation on STIs, maternal infections and neonatal sepsis, and why early action matters.

#ACC2026
Just my thoughts: Research is not only needed for life-threatening conditions but also for less critical ones. Carrying and feeding one or more children takes years of our lives, and even non-critical conditions cause suffering over such a timeframe. Would we ask men to just accept that?
Excited to learn more in this session! More research including pregnant and breastfeeding women is urgently needed.
“No one should die from TB.”
Dr Wanatpreeya Phongsamart emphasized that equity in TB care means prioritizing pregnant women and children, who face high mortality yet remain underrepresented in research and trials🤱👶

A little sad that I have totally missed the first ever #WorldPPHDay but great to see that there is action!
I was very unlucky to almost "manage" to die from PPH in a rich country like Switzerland, but I was SO lucky to have access to all care, tools, knowledge and medicines needed to keep me alive.
This post is brought to you by: BLOOD 🩸
As I am nearing the 4th anniversary of almost dying from #postpartumhaemorrhage, I am thrilled to see that blood donation criteria in Switzerland will change from 1 Feb, allowing more people to become donors. I hope to be one of them soon!
