@SolidEvidence Great thread Mark.
Regarding timing, see our preprint on epistasis which we hope to publish someday:

LINE-1 is associated with disease and aging. The @RoutLab_RU has uncloaked the core of its key protein, pointing the way towards therapeutic targets. #RockefellerScience https://t.co/zO7SMw2aoR

@HarmitMalik Yup! Been cleaning up such a mess all week. Hopefully it won’t drag on for ever and ever and…

No fruit bats are not magic animals that do not suffer disease consequences of bacterial and viral infections (pathology studies like these are very painstaking to perform) https://t.co/9Gk31isW9e

I couldn't have ended the year with a better gift than to be able to broadly share the main story of my PhD work, recently published in @PNASNews.

We found that #PCF11 associates with #WDR82 to silence HIV-1 in latently infected cells.

The HUSH complex guards vertebrate genomes from retroelements. Our new structural/biochemical study on MPP8 reveals the interaction interface with TASOR required for HUSH assembly & suggests links between HUSH & SUMO https://t.co/v5caR25yBk @daniilprigozhin @MedCambridge @MRC_LMB

Looking for a motivated postdoctoral research scientist with cryo-EM and biochemistry experience to join our group to study virus-host interactions and coevolution. We benefit from a great environment @MRC_LMB @MedCambridge @Cambridge_Uni

How big is Africa, in reality.

“Transposable elements contribute to nearly 80% of human-specific candidate cis-regulatory elements in cortical cells” 🧠 …🤯 literally! Amazing dataset 🔥 Congrats to all involved!

🔔'Tis the season...to apply for a new job?! My group @MedCambridge is recruiting for 2 posts:

Postdoc: https://t.co/65QjHYDpXk
Research assistant: https://t.co/1vSF3py32A

Both roles will seek to improve our understanding of coronavirus cross-species transmission. #preparedness

🔥🔥How does the LINE-1 retrotransposon jump around in the human genome? Super excited to present my postdoctoral work answering this published today @Nature
together with twitterless Kathy Collins's lab and @NogalesLab @UCBerkeley

Mucosal antibodies in people with infection, not in vaccinated-only individuals. This is a correlate of protection from infection, although not fully validated https://t.co/VlmC3fu5Io Great work, based on paired nasal and blood sampling

[Miriam Merad, MD, PhD @MiriamMerad]

Very excited by our results @Nature showing that IL4R signaling is strongly enriched in myeloid cells that infiltrate mice and lung cancer lesions https://t.co/Nnjc7ue96y

[Cedric🧬➰🧬Feschotte @CedricFeschotte]

YES! 💯Thanks Massimo and all who helped organize #RetroPath. What a blast it was! A few intense days of amazing 🦠 science in a stunning spot. I’ve learned a ton and made a bunch of new friends! 🥰

[International Workshop on Retroviral Pathogenesis @Retro_Path]

A big thanks to our fabulous host Massimo Pizzato of @UniTrento for hosting this year's #RetroPath meeting, it was fabulous!

[Baldauf Lab @Baldauf_Lab]

New day, new sessions @Retro_Path @MUSE_Trento

[Cedric🧬➰🧬Feschotte @CedricFeschotte]

Great talk by Hanna-Mari @Baldauf_Lab comparing antiviral activity of Guanyl-binding proteins of 🧒🐭 🐰! GBP2 & GBP5 are some of my fave restriction factors bc both are activated by retroviral LTRs as @SmithaBadarina2 showed nicely before

@CedricFeschotte Grazie mille @CedricFeschotte!!
So great to get to kick around some virion ideas together. Check out them tetraspanins with @MuriauxD
