Amazing research by primary students on Viking Poo. They found whipworm eggs -these are the #genomedecoders of the future @WGCengage Wellcome Sanger Institute WormHunters wormbase This is part of a phenomenal set of presentations by students from schools across North Yorkshire aged 9-18

We'll be talking about #discovery in schools across #Cambridgeshire in September. If you're in the area get in touch and we could be heading to a school near you.

It was a wonderful evening with such a lively and entertaining group; curious about everything from 20m long intestinal #worms, to how we build a mini gut! #Research #Outreach #BeatNTDs #Organoids #WomenInSTEM 👩🏾‍🔬👊🏾🐛 x.com/wormhunters/st…

On #EndangeredSpeciesDay, it's worth remembering the parasitic species at risk when their hosts are endangered. We want to #beatNTDs but not cause ecological damage in the process. We #wormhunters were exploring the amazing variation in human parasites with the Scouts this week!

The #wormhunters had a great day yesterday at the Wellcome Connecting Science #SummerCelebration. Here's a quick video overview of the project and work Maria Duque was recognised for, & the fantastic #SequencingInSchools work Kim Judge has been doing with #SequencingInASuitcase! x.com/WGCengage/stat…

#ThrowBackThursday to our #wormhunters sessions with Abington Scouts over the last couple of weeks. Great to see interest around #NTDs. The children had so many fantastic questions from how long the #research takes to why parasites look the way they do! #Scouts #SciComm
