Today, we celebrate the birth of William Harvey (1578–1657), the English physician who first accurately described how the heart pumps blood throughout the body. (1/3)

In anticipation (and preparation!) of my professorial inauguration this summer @qmulwhri.bsky.social @qmulfmd.bsky.social , I had some special visitors at work! Still pretty petrified that Prof Aksentijevic senior (aka mum!) will tell me I am not working hard enough! 🙇🏻‍♀️😂 #rolemodels

A new study from @qmul.ac.uk found that 9% of all adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported to @mhragovuk.bsky.social are associated with medications where side effect risk is partly dependent on patient’s genes. Of these, 75% were associated with 3 genes that impact how the body processes medication.

An international study of the health outcomes of people receiving surgery across 17 Latin American countries found 1 in 7 developed significant complications leading to longer hospital stays and a greater risk of death.
