All about Bioinformatics, Omics, Parasites and Superbugs. Research Scientist @MethodistHosp Research Institute and Assistant Professor of Bioinf Res at WCMC
Really proud to share the PhD thesis work of Rui Xiao. One day, while using long-read RNA-seq for annotation of the genome, he discovered polycistronic transcripts in Cryptosporidium parvum. Read all about it at: https://t.co/W64taVCKnE

Great news ... but a stable model has to be found ... and I don't feel that we should give @NIAIDFunding a free pass on this. I am still puzzled that one would cut funding to something we urgently need and replace it with something few of us have asked for or need for.
Fantastic new paper on phosphodiestarase inhibitors as potential treatment for cryptosporidiosis. Tour de force paper from screening, to modelling, to genetic target validation. Great work from the lab of Chris Huston @uvmvermont https://t.co/5PXoaPzwmL @TrendsParasitol
