Excited to share an upcoming project we're part of 👇
A team of researchers from @cardiffuni and @AberUni have been awarded funding of nearly £1.2 million by @UKRI_News to develop a novel point-of-care #TB detector for humans and animals capable of delivering a result within 1 hour - cardiff.ac.uk/news/view/2841…
ALT Image show electron microscopy image of M.bovis the organism which causes bovine TB. Quote alongside is from Professor Adrian Porch, Principal Investigator, School of Engineering, and reads: "With the aid of the UKRI funding, we have an opportunity to exploit the unique expertise of our team to help the worldwide fight against TB, to alleviate the huge suffering in both humans and animals via early and accurate diagnosis."
