We will do that for sure with the official launch of the full platform in december :) Please fill the survey and share it with everyone, even if they are not themselves Sikh or Scientists, but may know of 1.

  • @SikhScientists @RaviSinghKA @SikhPA @roti888 @SCUKofficial @BritSikhAsso @BritishSikhDocs @sikhchannel @Sikh_Research @SGPCAmritsar @KaurMovement @LookASingh @NarinderKG @KaurChemist @gakaur Excellent initiative. It would be useful to draft and share a vision statement - often a brief strapline. That underpins the mission statement.

  • Please help us spread the word @RaviSinghKA @SikhPA @roti888 @SCUKofficial @SikhDoctorAssoc @BritSikhAsso @BritishSikhDocs @sikhchannel @Sikh_Research @SGPCAmritsar @KaurMovement @LookASingh @NarinderKG @KaurChemist @gakaur

  • @gakaur Good work. Just wondering if silica nanoparticles could be used as a microcarriers ?

  • @gakaur Thank you for your fantastic contribution! 😊

  • @hello_bio @CaitlinAamodt @BerdyAndTheBees @gakaur @DrMatthewLloyd @BronwenMMartin @StuartMaudsley @TweetwithQuinn @HKNVee This compilation is fantastic! Thank you for inviting me.
