As Niagara Region’s only safe drug consumption site faces closure, advocates fear more people will die
Advocates fear the looming closure of the Niagara Region's sole safe drug consumption site, in St. Catharines, Ont., will result in a spike in overdose deaths and cases of blood-borne infections such as hepatitis C and HIV.

(Glyco-)sphingolipids play important roles in bacterial infections. Studying them requires powerful chemical tools.

Jürgen Seibel talked at #Biochemistry2026 about the synthesis of probes based on (glyco-)sphingolipids and their use to study biology e.g. using expansion microscopy.

"Testing of #water from Lough Neagh [Northern Ireland], which has a surface area 26 times bigger than Windermere, found genes resistant to a wide range of #antibiotics, including #carbapenems - #drugs reserved for life-threatening #infections when all other #treatments have failed."
‘Drinking from a fetid pond’: superbug-creating genes found in UK’s largest lake

Exclusive: Lough Neagh, which supplies drinking water for 40% of NI, contains genes resistant to last-resort antibiotics

Alongside the resistance genes, markers of human, cow and pig faeces were detected in the water—sewage and livestock slurry create ideal conditions for superbugs. #Health #Antibiotics #AMR #Infections #Sewage #Livestock

Biofilm streamers harden under flow, making bacterial infections harder to treat

Whether in the human body or on surfaces, bacteria protect themselves from outside attackers using biofilms. Physicist Eleonora Secchi is researching how these slime-like protective films are formed, with the aim of making it easier to remove pathogenic bacteria.

Did you know 77% of people worldwide don’t know what encephalitis is? This serious brain inflammation affects 1.5 million people globally each year and can have life-changing consequences.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝟱 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀:
1. Encephalitis is inflammation of the brain.
2. It can be caused by infections or immune system errors.
3. Anyone can get encephalitis – regardless of age, gender, or ethnicity.
4. It can lead to death or cause severe brain injury in survivors.
5. Early recognition and treatment save lives and improve outcomes.

Let’s raise awareness and support those affected. Together, we can make a difference.
