@asherichia @ErasmusMC It was a great meeting, looking forward to all things to come!

[Marc Shamier @marcshamier]

Excited to share our recent contribution in The Lancet Infectious Diseases! In our commentary, we address knowledge gaps regarding mpox immunity and the need for future studies. @Corine_GvK @LucaMZaeck @rorydevries @MarionKoopmans @TheLancetInfDis https://t.co/0R5iqUsIZm

I am very happy to share the link to our accepted paper in @LSAjournal
Super smooth and fast process!
Thanks once again to my awesome coauthor @LC_Rijsbergen, @LonnekevNes, @DebbyvanRiel and all others who contributed to this exciting work!

@Corine_GvK @NVMM_NL @NatureMedicine @rorydevries @MartLamers @MarionKoopmans @Babs_virology @ErasmusMC Thank you so much! 😊

[Corine GeurtsvanKessel @Corine_GvK]

Congrats to the talented postdoc @LucaMZaeck who was awarded the yearly van Leeuwenhoek award @NVMM_NL for his first authorship paper in @NatureMedicine on immunity against mpox vaccination&infection. Great work!

Short 'behind the paper' blog of our recent publication in @NatureMedicine on neutralising antibody levels after vaccination against monkeypox 😀 @MarionKoopmans @Corine_GvK @LucaMZaeck @Babs_virology @bart_haagmans @MartLamers https://t.co/74fJvohfcg

[Nature Medicine @NatureMedicine]

Historic #smallpox vaccination and #monkeypox virus (MPXV) infection elicit MPXV-neutralizing antibodies, but these responses are of lower magnitude after vaccination with MVA-BN, the #vaccine in use for protection against MPXV and smallpox @Corine_GvK

Great to see our paper on monkeypox serology in @NatureMedicine today, the result of a great collaborative effort at @ErasmusMC and @GGD Rotterdam. 🧵

First observations on vaccinia and monkeypox specific responses in person with infection and vaccination, with and without historic smallpox vaccination https://t.co/iLJVMhVSXF great teamwork again @rorydevries @Corine_GvK @bart_haagmans @GGD_RR @MartLamers

An immature heart muscle cell (i.e., cardiac myocyte) videoed through a DIC microscope. The worm-like things are the powerhouses of the cell, mitochondria. The "twitching" is a result of capturing some frames during a contraction.

Lesser known, I made a load of companion material/slides/exercises for in-person courses, using the same approach of trying to make tricky, interrelated stuff visual & intuitive.

It's not online anywhere, but may be one day.

Meanwhile, here's a tiny bit (without narration)
