I'm quite glad we got to use microsampling to do time-series RNAseq. Had 6 parasites X 17 timepoints = LOTS of mice. We followed a hunch that 20uL of blood at each T (w/o killing) would be enough to do RNAseq. And it worked! Check out the method - https://

Here's a great #Plasmodium/#malaria paper for those working with rodent models of malaria & want to reduce animal usage. In this @MalariaJournal paper, the authors show how microsampling (as low as 20ul) can produce transcriptomic results: https://t.co
