When antibiotics stop working, routine infections can become dangerous. Doctors need quick, clear answers to choose the right treatment and avoid antibiotics that won’t help. Using the wrong antibiotic can fuel antibiotic resistance (AMR), which is when germs learn to beat the medicines we rely on. Our lab tests show which antibiotic is likely to work for a patient’s infection. That helps care teams treat precisely, avoid unnecessary antibiotics, and slow the spread of resistance. The impact goes beyond hospitals. Resistance can appear in animals, water, and soil. Health is connected; what happens in one place affects us all. During World AMR Awareness Week, see how smarter testing today helps protect antibiotics for tomorrow. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gkv-GDpZ

A place where cell and gene therapy breakthroughs can become real-world care for more patients. This week we opened our Advanced Therapies Collaboration Center (ATxCC) in Philadelphia. Inside BioLabs for Advanced Therapeutics Philadelphia's newly expanded 53,000-square-foot biotech incubator, the fourth site in our global network equips researchers with expertise, technology, and processes to help standardize and scale manufacturing so that promising therapies can move from the lab to the patients who need them with greater speed and confidence. Thank you to our partners and our colleagues in Philadelphia and around the world for your dedication to advancing the cell and gene therapies that reprogram a patient’s own immune cells to recognize and attack disease.

We recently celebrated the opening of our expanded research and development center of excellence in Bengaluru, a 37,000-square-foot space where teams can design and make high-quality materials used in medical tests and research. With advanced instruments and automation, this site will strengthen collaboration across government, academia and industry and empower scientists to move from an idea to clear, reliable results faster. Thank you to members of the Karnataka Digital Economy Mission, the Karnataka Innovation & Technology Society and state leaders in technology and innovation for joining us. Together, we’re supporting research in infectious diseases, virus science, and cancer so clinicians and labs all over the world can deliver answers that matter for patients.

Empowered early in his career by NIH funding, Thermo Fisher’s John Puglia pursued research that ultimately helped lead to tools that today make drug production more routine and efficient. “Without NIH’s early investment, these advances could have been delayed, setting back our ability to deliver healthier outcomes for society,” says John. Learn more from John about how sustained NIH funding helps turn bold ideas into real-world impact—from new cell lines to therapies like monoclonal antibodies for hard-to-treat diseases: https://lnkd.in/ew4P7dPz United for Medical Research

From lava to lab. Follow researchers into newly formed volcanic caves, where a Thermo Fisher instrument helps researcher uncover nanoscale clues to life’s origins. Then see how advances in autoimmune diagnostics help patients get the right tests and treatment faster. This and more in the latest issue of Serving Science.

The U.S. FDA has granted 510(k) clearance to our EXENT® System to aid in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma, a blood cancer that affects more than 176,000 people each year. EXENT is a first-of-its-kind, automated system that delivers increased sensitivity, specific identification of disease markers, and improved laboratory workflow to support fast, confident diagnoses. The process of diagnosing multiple myeloma can be complex and slow, often relying on subjective interpretation of test results. The EXENT system is designed to detect and isotype M-proteins at low concentrations and clearly flag signals from therapeutic antibody-derived proteins to deliver clear, automated results. This helps give clinicians a reliable view of the patient’s condition and supports early, confident diagnosis. With the EXENT system, we are empowering healthcare providers to make more informed and timely diagnoses so that they can focus care where it's needed most. Learn more at the link in the comments.

This National STEM day, we’re teaming up with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to spark curiosity with free, hands-on STEM fun for kids. Think slime, mini weather labs and simple experiments using household materials that teach problem-solving, critical thinking and creativity — skills that open doors to opportunity and some of the fastest-growing careers. “Hands-on activities bring STEM to life,” says Thermo Fisher’s Meron Mathias. When “students build, test and experiment, those abstract ideas suddenly become real. They experience the power of curiosity and the thrill of discovery — and start to see themselves as problem-solvers.” Try an activity with a young person in your life and share the messy, joyful results. Together, we can inspire the next generation of innovators and help them learn the skills they’ll need to change the world. Explore more at the link in the comments.
