New research has revealed a link between ancient viral DNA in the human genome and the genetic risk for multiple sclerosis #MS and motor neurone disease #MND

The study was led by Dr @3RDuarte and Dr @powell_tim_r, published in @BrainBehavImm

Why can't we watch @BBCNewsdayLive or the @BBCWorld on the @BBCiPlayer? They're so much more straight to the point, informative, and way less depressing than 90% of the stories that come up on @BBCBreakfast!

More locus-specific #HERVs linked to brain-related traits—this time, neurodegenerative diseases like #MS and #ALS! 🧠 New connections between ancient viral DNA and modern health challenges. Summary here: https://t.co/oIE1IAxrJb

Honoured to receive the Gershon Paper of the Year Award from @ispgnet at #wcpg2024 in Singapore! This award is especially meaningful as it represents the joint effort with my incredible husband, @powell_tim_r. Grateful to everyone who supported us along the way! #LGBTinSTEM

Interested in inflammation, telomere attrition, or human endogenous retroviruses, and their links to psychiatry? Speak to the fantastic scientists in my team (Posters T77, T19, T28) at #WCPG2024 in Singapore today.

@Joni_Coleman isn't tweeting about #wcpg2024 and it feels weird. How am I gonna learn?

@powell_tim_r @A_Packer @MarghMalanchini @katielunnon @FriesGabriel @SGDPCentreKCL @KingsIoPPN Congrats @A_Packer !!! 🎉🎉🎉

[Rodrigo Duarte @3RDuarte]

@NCNDgroup_KCL P.S.: You can see A. was paying extreme attention to your lecture😅

[Rodrigo Duarte @3RDuarte]

Absolutely thrilled to call Prof. Srivastava (@NCNDgroup_KCL @KingsIoPPN), who was one of my PhD supervisors, a friend and collaborator! Working with you has been an incredible privilege! Here’s to many more exciting collaborations and groundbreaking research! #ScienceBuddies 🧠

[Srivastava Lab @NCNDgroup_KCL]

This was a very special evening! Thank you to all (family, friends, lab members and everyone else) who were able to join me and helped to make so much fun - thanks to Mark Richardson for the introduction and @VernonLab_KCL for the vote of thanks! @KingsIoPPN

[Rodrigo Duarte @3RDuarte]

Congratulations on becoming a Professor, Deepak!!! @NCNDgroup_KCL 🥂🥳

[Timothy Powell @powell_tim_r]

🚀Our article on HERVs and their link to psychiatric disorders just got republished by @sciam! 🧬🧠 Dive into how ancient viruses in our DNA might affect mental health. Check it out! #Science #Genetics #Psychiatry #HERVs @3RDuarte @NIHRMaudsleyBRC @KingsCollegeLon @KingsIoPPN

[Rodrigo Duarte @3RDuarte]

Thank you @heatherkroeker for your support!!

[Rodrigo Duarte @3RDuarte]

@powell_tim_r, @TheNixonLab and myself wrote a piece for the @ConversationUK to explain what our research on human endogenous retroviruses mean for Psychiatry (and also what it DOESN'T mean!) We hope you enjoy it! https://t.co/Etc5As6DVL
