Oooh shiny. I bought a Stanley in Periwinkle Shimmer. I also got a load of flavour sachets for my water. I love the Sonic Ocean Water ones. I guess I'm part of #watertok (or would it be #watersky here?) now. 😂💧

The latest news piece shares the outcomes from Day 1 of the #EU_WISH International Workshop held at @ucddublin.bsky.social (9–10 September 2025), dedicated to the prioritization of wastewater surveillance targets.

AMR data from wastewater surveillance is still difficult to interpret. With the new UWWTD, AMR wastewater surveillance will come anyways. Thus, we need to identify targets with whom to accompany it to generate use cases.
Maybe combination with STI monitoring could be a thing?
