Finished my PhD in 3 years instead of 4 (thanks, COVID), and defended my thesis in the middle of a snowstorm with 140 cm of snow (2nd pic is me on the way of defense). Nothing like a challenge to the very end! #PhD

@Labiofy Thank you so much 😊

Last month, I got interviewed by a Japan’s agriculture newspaper.
As mostly farmers will read this newspaper, I don’t know if they will find my cytoadhesion/ridge story interesting enough or not 😅

@ab1nay As someone who is still struggling with her dicre, let me say it is 👍🏼😅
Congrats again, you made my next journal club awesome 😎

[Atefeh Fathi @Atithevet]

Congratulations!
First time I listened to the SHIFTiKO story in MAM last year, it is an incredible system and a huge step on gene modification in malaria.

[Abhinay Ramaprasad @ab1nay]

A Happy New Year indeed! Our new scaleable DiCre system in malaria parasites, SHIFTiKO, has found its home yesterday at Nucleic Acids Research! https://t.co/VEr1P8qC9N

@Alireza8911 @PLOSPathogens Thank you ☺️

[Atefeh Fathi @Atithevet]

Excited to announce the publication of the first paper from my PhD!
@PLOSPathogens
In this story we revealed the critical role of SBP3 in ridge formation and cerebral babesiosis, while having an important role in survival of the parasite.

[VEuPathDB @veupathdb]

Welcome back! VEuPathDB resources are back online today! We will continue to provide bioinformatics services under a new organizational structure. Read more here: https://t.co/YNX4KBuIxV

[Leann Tilley @LeannTilley]

Yay! Our study of malaria parasite kinetochore proteins is now published in @NatureComms. Jiahong and friends tagged different component of the mitotic apparatus and viewed with Ultra-Expansion Microscopy and multi-section Electron Microscopy. How cool! https://t.co/AIK88NQmmj

[BiologyofParasitism @MBLBoP]

It was incredible to have @DuraisinghLab here at @MBLBoP to teach us about large scale functional genomic screens of #Plasmodium and #Babesia. His inspiring journey from London through Melbourne to Boston added a personal touch to the experience.

@ab1nay 😂😂👍🏼

[Atefeh Fathi @Atithevet]

Today I got す (Japanese alphabet: SU) contamination while diluting glycerol.

I don’t know how it went there but funny 😅

[Atefeh Fathi @Atithevet]

@SaharnazBabaei @UWLaCrosse Congratulations 🥳

[Atefeh Fathi @Atithevet]

Amazing! 🤩

[Thorey Jonsdottir @ThoreyJonsdott1]

FINALLY ONLINE 🥳 In our @Marti_Paoletta pre-print (https://t.co/R2j1B46gQ0) we present a scalable CRISPR system in Plasmodium berghei called PbHiT, providing detailed protocols and construct designs for anyone to use! 🧵@Bushell_Lab @umeauniversity @mims_umea @womeninmalaria
