Using Nanopore sequencing to identify bacterial infection in joint replacements: A Preliminary study (2024)
Journal Article
Wilkinson, H., McDonald, J., McCarthy, H., Perry, J., Wright, K., Hulme, C., & Cool, P. (in press). Using Nanopore sequencing to identify bacterial infection in joint replacements: A Preliminary study. Briefings in Functional Genomics, Article elae008. https://doi.org/10.1093/bfgp/elae008

This project investigates if third-generation genomic sequencing can be used to identify the species of bacteria causing prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) at the time of revision surgery. Samples of prosthetic fluid were taken during revision surger... Read More about Using Nanopore sequencing to identify bacterial infection in joint replacements: A Preliminary study.

The clinical potential of meniscal progenitor cells (2024)
Journal Article
Yan, W., Wang, J., Fan, P., Roberts, S., Wright, K., & Zhang, Z. (2024). The clinical potential of meniscal progenitor cells. Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation (JCJP), 100166. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcjp.2024.100166

Introduction The meniscus is an important cushioning structure of the knee joint, the maintenance of its normal structure and function plays a crucial role in protecting the joint from early degeneration. Stem/pro... Read More about The clinical potential of meniscal progenitor cells.
