Mackenzie Lab

We’re a Virology lab @thedohertyinst looking at how flaviviruses and noroviruses replicate, and how they alter innate immunity. Lab Head: @JasonMack1234

Tuesday lab meetings with the @MackenzieLab featuring the boss himself @JasonMack1234 @TheDohertyInst

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

Congratulations to @ALopezDenman for submitting his thesis today! @TheDohertyInst @JasonMack1234

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

The Mackenzie lab are sad to say goodbye to Svenja who has been an integral part of the group for a long time. After a very successful completion of her PhD, she is off to @MonashUni to start her next chapter as a postdoc @TheDohertyInst @JasonMack1234

[Joshua Deerain @JoshuaDeerain]

Thank you to Sonja from Mimotopes for giving Jase this awesome game. The @MackenzieLab board game nights will be virology themed from now on. #lorneiandi #pandemic #virology

[Joshua Deerain @JoshuaDeerain]

What a fantastic #lorneiandi meeting it has been so far. Here is @MackenzieLab member Turgut Aktepe presenting his fascinating work on how flaviviruses use host proteins to build an intracellular niche for replication. @TheDohertyInst #arbovirus

#AVS9 Awards winners now posted on website! Congratulations to our talented budding virologists🏆 https://t.co/GRAch0dsyR

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

Congratulations to our fantastic PhD student Svenja for winning a poster award for her work titled “MNV manipulates the surface expression of MHC class I proteins” at #AVS9! https://t.co/sOrw7X20ZG

[Aust'asian Virology @AusVirologySoc]

Congratulations to the winner of the #AVS9 Griffiths Institute of Glycomics Student Poster Award: Svenja Fritzlar 🎉

@AusVirologySoc #AVS9 That picture sums up the feeling....you DO NOT want to get Noravirus..... and EXPLOSIVE DIARRHOEA 💥🔥💩 https://t.co/LRQaSBcl1O

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

“Explosive diarrhoea” now we’ve got your attention - Daniel Enosi Tuipulotu from #WhiteLab @UNSW is presenting now on norovirus and TLR7 agonists #AVS9

[Robyn Hall @Virologica]

#AVS9 Paulina Koszalka - nitazoxamide, a repurposed drug with antiviral activity with a novel mechanism of action. Good results in ferret trials in combination with oseltamivir for reducing seasonal FluA titres

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

On right now! Our lab member, Paulina Koszalka, presenting on influenza antivirals! #AVS9 #MackenzieLab

[Stephen Turner @sjturn]

#AVS9 Dr Josh Hayward and why should we care about bat viruses, aside from learning how APOBEC proteins can restrict viruses, baby bats are super cute.... @AusVirologySoc @AUSSOCMIC

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

Great to hear our lab alumnus, Dr.Rebecca Ambrose, talk about her latest work on a novel human protein that regulates antiviral immune signalling. #MackenzieLab #AVS9

[Lara Herrero-Marcus @lara_marcus]

NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA BATMAN!!! #AVS9 @AusVirologySoc #VirusesRule

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

@MackayIM Great advice. Will try and be more approachable tomorrow!

Julio Carrera, another PhD student in our lab is presenting his poster for a candidate Zika vaccine right now!! (#103) #AVS9

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

And here he is!

[Mackenzie Lab @MackenzieLab]

Our PhD student Nathan Kenney is presenting an oral poster about phosphoinositides and #norovirus replication. He’ll also be at his poster (#106) for any follow up questions tonight! #AVS9 #MackenzieLab
