Is this heaven? No, it's #Pittsburgh.

What an incredible morning in the Steel City. I had hoped to capture the moon but when this fog rolled in I knew we were in for some amazing scenes, and the view from the West End was perfect. Check out those shadows on the fog. Just insane.

So fun to connect with a past peer and colleague @ashleydivens from my PhD program at @WVUmicro as she interviews for a potential postdoc at a collaborating lab at the @PittCVR ! So cool to see how her project has progressed since she first joined the program👩‍🔬 💙 💛

We have a new preprint on #Oropouche virus, the emerging #bunyavirus circulating in South America. In work with the #prototype BeAn19991 strain, we found primary neurons and microglia to be highly permissive to infection.
