Diagnostics Without Frontiers: A regenerable supply chain for PCR in low resource countries
Mon 14 October
Department of Chemistry
A Lecture by Professor Lisa Hall FRSC CBE, Professor of Analytical Biotechnology, Department of Chemical Engineering & Biotechnology, University of Cambridge.
The first talk in a series of lectures organised by the Cambridge Philosophical Society in the Michaelmas Term 2024.
Abstract: The dynamics of infectious disease (ID) require fast accurate diagnosis for effective management and treatment. Without affordable, accessible diagnostics, syndromic or presumptive actions are often followed, where positive cases may go undetected in the community, or mistreated due to wrong diagnosis. In many low and middle income countries (LMICs), this undermines effective clinical decision-making and infectious disease containment.
