    Today for #Eweek2023 we’re spotlighting different types of research models. Scientists at @GVNlab have created an interconnected multi-organ tissue chip, which could allow researchers to better investigate diseases/treatments that affect multiple organs. nibib.nih.gov/news-events/ne…

    A #RADx team found that kids can self-swab for PCR-based lab tests for #COVID19. This study provides data to support recommendations regarding self-swabbing that can be implemented by schools & other group settings @EmoryUniversity @childrensatl @WilburLam nibib.nih.gov/news-events/ne…

    Rapid #COVID19 test results could help guide public health responses, but these results are not typically reported. Now, #NIH has launched a website to anonymously report the results of these at-home tests in a secure manner. Check it out here: makemytestcount.org/?utm_medium=af…
