1 year! We are celebrating our lab anniversary 🎉 1st students, 1st experiments, 1st failures, 1st successes, 1st grant awarded, many rejections, 1st awards/fellowships of students. 1st socials! What a challenging but fun year! Here’s to more! 👩‍🔬🪱🦟@UCBerkeleySPH @berkeleyMCB

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

We are super excited about our lab's first manuscript & being selected for the cover of the issue! We found that when clocks of host, parasite and mosquito align, transmission⬆️. Major congrats Ines, @BriannaPar7 and Rushlenne!

How remarkable was this milestone, when scientists in the lab are selected for talks and posters?! And with a bang 🎆! Way to go - super congrats Rushlenne on the 'best talk' award & @HeleneBorrmann on the poster honorable mention at #MPM2024! 👩‍🔬

[PEERs in Parasitology (PiP) @PiParasitology]

To close the Session VI #MPM2024, first year graduate student, Rushlenne Pascual from Dr. Filipa Rijo-Ferreira at Berkeley Public Health, take the stage to talk about Circadian rhythms mediate malaria transmission potential @parasitesrule

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

@berkeleyMCB @jamesknunez @pewtrusts @pewhealth Congrats James!! So well deserved 🤩

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

@luisamfigueired @rmc9z @parasitesrule I also remember that 😅 it can get pretty hot in those poster sessions!

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

I had a blast visiting our neighbors @NovartisGH, discussing science and seeing dear friends! Loved the tour of the lab, the state of the art robotics to assist drug screens - was a scientist Disneyland. 🤩 Thanks @ampliconX @ErikaLFlannery and Judith for the invitation.

[Manuel Saldivia @ampliconX]

Listening to @Filipa_Ferr talk about her amazing work is the perfect way to kickstart my motivation post-holidays!

[Young Investigators in Parasitology @YIPS_2024]

We'll also have an AMA Panel of #newPIs in #Parasitology who recently started their labs for Postdocs interested in transitioning to independence or going on the job market soon!!!

#Postdocs_in_Parasitology come ask us anything at 3PM on Sep 15 in Clapp Auditorium @WoodsHole!

[Young Investigators in Parasitology @YIPS_2024]

We're back! Together with #MPM/#KMCB, we are holding a Young Investigators in Parasitology Meeting (YIPs) for junior PIs! We'll have panels & group discussions on all things to do with starting a new lab.

Register here!👇👉https://t.co/EAqFBpWJGf

Hey Parasitology trainees, join us at the Kinetoplastid Molecular and Cell Biology meeting in September in Woods Hole.

Here is why Filipa Rijo Ferreira enjoyed it. 🥰

Abstract deadline: June 24th .

@Filipa_Ferr @parasitesrule

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

@MonicaMugnier @DrHazmatic @mimi1inh Awesome! All the ‘yes’ will receive more information about the program soon. That’s all you needed to do. Looking forward to meeting you!

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

And our first ever lab manuscript is published!! 🥳💪🏽 here our talented postdoc @HeleneBorrmann reflects on how tissue biology changes across the day and its impact on pathogens.

Thanks for the opportunity @KafsackLab @PLOSPathogens

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

@partchlab @LabGrosshans @ward_lab Go Becca et al! 🥳

Thanks to the awesome speakers of the session “Beyond model organisms” #srbr2024 @MarthaMerrow @CharissaB @ReeceLab @Filipa_Ferr @ibiochile

[Filipa Rijo-Ferreira @Filipa_Ferr]

@ricardoataide @alumnigabba I am so sad to hear these news. Prof Amorim was one of the most amazing inquisitive minds and a dear mentor. I think he inspired so many of us from the GABBA program and beyond. He is already dearly missed! ❤️

[Migla Miskinyte @MMiskinyte]

Not so long left until the deadline! Apply by 15th of March to join us for SymbNET International Conference on Host-Microbe Symbiosis in the South of Portugal! See you there https://t.co/I4svPJgh6W 10th to 15th of June? @SymbNET #Olhao #Portugal @cellhostmicrobe @host_microbe
