BREAKING: We’re launching an innovative COVID-19 rapid antigen test and mobile app. BinaxNOW is fast and reliable for frequent mass testing, and results pair with the NAVICA app’s digital pass to help get back to life with a bit more confidence. abbo.tt/2D0DdSb

For those interesting in sensitivity of the new Abbott BinaxNow against day since symptom onset and Ct value - this is from their insert IFU.

Quanterix is pleased to be sponsoring this virtual meeting. Our own Paula Perin, Phd. will present on High Definition Simoa® Ultra-sensitive Cytokine Profiling for #COVID19 Research: Multiplexing with No Compromise on Sample Readability and Robustness ESCV Virology

Welcome to one of the newest members of the lab: AxiDraw! Hopefully, AxiDraw will turn out to be a collaborative and helpful new member🤔What is a 2D plotter doing in a 3D tissue engineering lab though? Stay tuned... 😱 Creds to Nancy T Li, PhD for the video!

1. One of the most delightful surprising things I learned as I progressed through my scientific training was realising that storytelling was a major & essential part of being a scientist. Whether writing papers, grants, or presenting a poster/talk, storytelling was a core skill.

Rapid #COVID 19 saliva tests are the swatter that could quash the pandemic. Will Canada deploy them? hilltimes.com/2020/09/09/bio… There are new opportunities to contain the virus, but we need to plan and act to deploy rapid diagnostic tests for everyone everywhere

A great step by WHO announcing 120 million #COVID19 rapid tests for low and middle income countries. If they are proven on the ground, we will want that number on a daily basis. if cost is <$1 a test, it might be cheaper then current PCR tests x.com/i/events/13106…

Peer-review vetting & NEJM seal for Michael Mina's rapid tests based #covid19 surveillance: less sensitive *and* superior too PCR. Health Canada and PHAC: What is national diagnostic strategy? We need a national initiative for mass manufacturing of millions of $1 tests/day in 🇨🇦

Yay. Gave my exam last week; it's a pandemic so trying show students grace. Gave them 6 hour window to complete exam. No monitoring software. And now I find my whole exam with worked solutions on Chegg. Garbage
