In my first Drosophila study at @SalehLabParis , we found that:

1. Enteric viral infections accelerate aging.
2. Even if the infection is cleared, aging process remains triggered.
3. Accelerated aging correlates with reduced lifespan.

Un honor que el periódico que llevo toda la vida leyendo se interese por la ciencia que hacemos.

Gracias @SandraPenelas por plasmar tan bien mi trayectoria científica y mi eterno agradecimiento a todos los que me han permitido llegar hasta aquí.

We're in the midst of a Computational revolution in biology, comparable to the Molecular revolution of the 70s. Baker, @demishassabis , and Jumper receiving the Nobel Prize not only recognizes their achievement, it's a coming of age for #bioinformatics. 🥳🎉

The #discovery of Orsay virus in C. elegans enhances viral #immunity studies and serves as a model for #VirusEvolution, with key #mutations emerging after 10 serial passages. #Virology

🎉 Congratulations to Cassandra Koh for receiving the ERC Starting Grant! Her project, MULTITUDES, will enhance our understanding of mosquito viromes and their role in arboviral disease ecology. 🦟🌍
Thanks @ERC_Research

[Cassandra Koh @koh_cassandra]

YA GIRL IS GOING TO BE A PI!!! So stoked to continue my love for mosquito viruses. MULTITUDES will delve into the biology of mosquito-specific viruses and their impact on arbovirus transmission @institutpasteur . Will be recruiting very soon so watch this space 🦟🔬

[Cassandra Koh @koh_cassandra]

Undescribably ecstatic and still in disbelief to be awarded an #ERCStG. Huge thanks to @ERC_Research and to many for their support in this journey: mentors past and present, grant readers, rehearsal panelists, work spouses, & real life spouse. Congrats to all awardees!

@jonathon_mifsud @Nature @Sydney_Uni @syd_health Congrats!! 🥳

[Anamarija Butkovic @Butkovic_A]

@SpyrosLytras @Nature Amazing work, congrats!!! 🥳

[Spyros Lytras @SpyrosLytras]

Very happy to have this one published in @Nature today!! 🤩🤩 Can we dig deeper into the intricate and ancient evolutionary history of the flaviviridae by comparing not only genetic sequence but also protein structure? answer is yes!!

Experimental evolution is a valuable tool for understanding how viruses change.
Our study presents the first experimental virus evolution in Caenorhabditis elegans, revealing crucial adaptation hotspots in the nucleotide diversity of the Orsay virus.

A little something I wrote about eukaryogenesis! I learned a lot doing research for this article!
Biology never ceases to amaze me 🧬
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did while writing it!

“That’s, like, wildly weird. The world is just full of new things. And once you start to look, you find them.”

Scientists have discovered tiny bits of RNA — even smaller than viruses — that colonize the bacteria inside human guts and mouths https://t.co/yhlFUb6eN8
