A project to detect genetic material from the Covid-19 virus in sewage and wastewater which would give an early warning of any resurgence in the community is among 11 coronavirus-related scientific projects that have been granted funding by Science Foundation Ireland.

Very happy that our paper on Rhodococcus equi (José A. Vázquez‐Boland & Wim G. Meijer) was a top downloaded paper in 2018-2019

It is dedicated to the memory of our colleague and friend Steeve Giguère, equine veterinary practitioner and R. equi researcher

Interesting to see the number of tests performed included now. https://t.co/ji8YbfV0zS

Adjusting to the new normal. @WimGMeijer’s first remote lab group meeting. Great to catch up with the team after a very strange couple of weeks @UCD_SBBS @AcclimatizeEU @EUSWIMProject #EUIrelandWales

#ccib2019week18 Why the protective rate of i.n is higher than s.c.?As they gave same antigen to mice why the results came so different?

In figure 4, they shown polymorphisms in CX3CR1 gene, as CX3CR1 is important for antifungal responses, why does it vary a lot? Is there any conserved region which might be a key region for its function? #ccib2019week17

Our paper shows shared vaginal & uterine #microbiomes that differentiate early postpartum in healthy #dairycows. Loss of diversity and dominance by few taxa are related to a delayed succession in cows developing #postpartum #endometritis. #PLOSONE: https://t.co/R1vIhNIPk8

@UCDInfectionBio In DNA binding assay, they choose a really high GC content DNA fragment. Is this common in Neisseria chromosome? Would this affect the result? #ccib2019week8

@UCDInfectionBio As Tax is sufficient for virulence in HTLV-1 in vivo and vitro, Does it work similarly in HTLV-2 #ccib2019week5

It’s been a great meeting with fantastic talks! #medvetpathogens2018

@UCDInfectionBio why did they examine M3 M5 rpoB with M5? Are they functionally related? #ccib2019week4

@UCDInfectionBio Could ClfA structure change when you express a part of it? Any mutation of Annexin A to verify its importance#ccib2019week1

[Raul Miranda-CasoLuengo @RaMiranda7]

A preprint of our paper of the #microbiome of the reproductive tract of dairy cows https://t.co/TZHaUFmc0j is already at @biorxivpreprint #microbiota @AleksandraMira5 @acoevans @WimGMeijer @DrErinWill

@UCDInfectionBio Is this autofluorescence test repeatable after heat treatment? How long the fluorescent can last?#ccib18week18

@UCDInfectionBio Paper for next week :https://t.co/hngibqhzDA #ccib18week15

[Cheng Cheng @ChenglikeOrange]

@UCDInfectionBio in table 1 they listed many characteristics of the population. how does these elements relate to the results? do all these characteristics matter?#ccib18week12

[Cheng Cheng @ChenglikeOrange]

@UCDInfectionBio would weather influence the results like after rain the sample in the same place can be different? #ccib18week11

[Cheng Cheng @ChenglikeOrange]

@UCDInfectionBio in the hierarchical clustering analysis, there are many genes upregulated and down-regulated, why EZH2 and HDAC11 was chosen as a main research target?#ccib18week10
