Emerging Antimicrobials and Diagnostics Event 2024 – 26th and 27th November It's been a great couple of days at the Emerging Antimicrobials and Diagnostics event in Amsterdam with David Chisholm sharing his insights about LXD231: LightOx’s light-activated antimicrobial product for the removal of bioburden in infected wounds. David said; “This year’s Emerging Antimicrobials and Diagnostics (EADA) conference in Amsterdam was a real highlight. It was a pleasure to speak to leaders in the antimicrobials and AMR fields from across Europe and share updates on our LXD231 technology in such a fantastic venue. It’s clear LightOx are developing something innovative in the sector, and it was encouraging to receive such a broad range of feedback and opportunities to collaborate in this critically important field.”

Great to see our very own Cole Sims doing a fantastic job in chairing the Antibiotic Resistance and Mechanisms (ARM) Workshop for Researchers 2024 today.
I've had a fantastic time at Antibiotic Resistance and Mechanisms (ARM) Workshop for Researchers 2024 (by British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy (BSAC)). It was a pleasure to chair the session this morning. Met lots of great people and (hopefully!) future collaborators! (Thanks for the lovely photo Ryan Waite) LightOx Ltd

Something that I now do a lot more, but after a conversation last week, someone asked me how would I know how to check myself? This video is short, but helpful, and spotting things as early as possible is key. https://lnkd.in/eTHgb4sj
