We continue to celebrate the #EEECommunity's SIX latest academic promotions ๐๐๐๐๐๐ Today we meet biomedical electronics engineer Professor Pantelis Georgiou Pantelis Georgiou imperial.ac.uk/news/230394/ceโฆ



4/6: We end strongly with our final session of the day (15:15-16:35) with Peter Openshaw (NHLI), Faith Osier (IAVI), Professor Marisa Miraldo (Imperial Business School), Kenny Malpartida (Imperial EEE), and Robin Shattock.


Kenny Malpartida Kenny Malpartida presents our latest advancements of using Lacewing for #Malaria detection and surveillance at the Institute of Infection launch! An amazing multidisciplinary collaboration with Aubrey Cunnington @drjakebaum Jesus Rodriguez Manzano Nicolas Moser!


Starting now at #ISNTDBites, session 2: hear about breakthroughs in vector surveillance to inform vector- and disease-control policies with Dr Gwen Lee Michigan Public Health, @Ayman_Arbovirus Sudanese National Academy of Sciences University of Khartoum, Kenny Malpartida Digital Diagnostics for Africa Network ๐bit.ly/3mgT96Q


#ISNTDBites: effective #vectorcontrol starts with precise and accurate vector & disease #surveillance. Kenny Malpartida Malpartida-Cardenas Digital Diagnostics for Africa Network Imperial College Malaria Network describes game-changing molecular #diagnostics for infectious diseases using microchip technology to shape strategies.


Brilliant work with great team! Fr we t to see pre-print out - next submit to Journal ๐ค Frances Davies Bee (A.Boonyasiri) Ashleigh Myall, PhD Yu Wan ไธๅฎ Frankie AliceLedda, PhD ๐ @SidMookerjee Andrea Weisse Jane Turton Hala Abbas Rลซta Prakapaitฤ Akshay Sabnis Ali Abdolrasouli

Many congratulations to my student Kenny Malpartida for defending her PhD thesis today! Great work co-supervised with Jesus Rodriguez Manzano on novel molecular methods enabling point-of-care diagnostics for infectious diseases. Many thanks to Jon Cooper and Martyn Boutelle for examining!




We have 10 fully funded PhD fellowships for African students to work on next generation point-of-care diagnostics with an amazing international team. Please help us spread the word!

6โฃ Providing cheap, portable diagnosis ๐งช Malaria diagnosis usually requires lab analysis of samples Imperial Department of Infectious Disease Imperial EEE Digital Diagnostics for Africa Network @imperialsci Lacewing teams developed a device to miniaturise the lab on a chip, making diagnosis portable, cheap & connected


Huge congratulations to all our Imperial College London graduates today and especially my PhD students Kenny Malpartida Miguel Cacho Soblechero Ahmad & Dan Terracina Barcas! Really proud supervisor! #OurImperial Imperial EEE


Great to be here with Aubrey Cunnington Pantelis Georgiou Kenny Malpartida to celebrate the achievements made possible by the The Global Fund and by all those involved in fighting #Malaria #AIDS and #TB

Happy to have received the DRA22 Recognition Award and to present my work with Kuimova Group and Nick Brooks investigating the mechanical properties of lipid membranes under stress๐ฌ at the #DRA2022 conference. Doctoral Researcher Awards Imperial Chemistry #NatLifeSci

Very honoured to be an awardee in the #DRA2022 and present my work on molecular methods for point-of-care diagnostics of infectious diseases working with Pantelis Georgiou Jesus Rodriguez Manzano Doctoral Researcher Awards Imperial EEE Imperial Department of Infectious Disease #EngSci #DRA2022

Our study bringing Lacewing to London and Taiwan for detection of #dengue serotypes is now out in Frontiers - Bioengineering and Biotechnology frontiersin.org/articles/10.33โฆ ! Next step towards enabling point-of-need digital diagnostics in LMICs! Jesus Rodriguez Manzano Kenny Malpartida aholmes Pantelis Georgiou ImperialCBIT

Fantastic to see Minister for Africa Gillian Keegan talking with Dr Kenny Malpartida Cardenas Kenny Malpartida about molecular digital diagnostics technology Lacewing and its potential in the fight against #malaria. Thx Malaria No More UK Victoria Fowler Charlotte Dixie Lucy Tiller


Many thanks to Baroness Sugg and Malaria No More for inviting Kenny Malpartida and I to your pre- #WorldMalariaDay2023 event. We're pleased to be contributing to efforts to #EndMalaria through our work Digital Diagnostics for Africa Network Great to see the committment of MPs and Peers to #ZeroMalaria
