Awesome experience at the #mpm2024 yet again! Enjoyed nerding out and having fun with the #malariaresearch community!

Congratulations on the successful leadership of the outgoing organisers and thank you for yet another opportunity at a talk to showcase my work!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

@striepenlab Thanks for the street cred Boris! Hope that the science was just as enjoyable

@LlinasLab @Lebrun43782700 @LiBibo2022 Congratulations and thank you and the team for the three years of hard work and sacrifice to keep the community going strong!

We’re (at least my boss is) hiring! If you or someone you know is looking for a research assistant position to use molecular biology to explore drug discovery, do refer them to the recent opening in our lab! https://t.co/qYkpL0XnqI

It was a long journey, but we’ve finally seen this through! Check out our work published in Cell Reports on the comparative spatial proteomics of Plasmodium-infected erythrocytes

The team would like to dedicate this milestone to the late Dr Anthony Siau

@amit_subudhi82 Congrats on the paper! It’s work that’s worth noticing, and it will!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

Wonderful work by a great friend and scientist! Big waves made at the King Abdullah University!

Check this out👇! We got our AP2-P (pathogenesis) work presented in BioMalPar #EMBLMalaria and MPM XXXIV #mpm2023 @parasitesrule @veupathdb published in Nature Microbiology. Many thanks to all who made this happen. @pathogensKAUST1 @KaustResearch @KAUST_News

Hey malaria folk - has anyone made a Dd2 line stably expressing DiCre that you would be willing to share? (Please RT)

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

@MayoClinicINFD What I do wonder is what the physiological condition of the patient was when this diagnosis was made. Parasitemia (level of infection) such as this would result in quite a severe disease pathology by this point

On a side note, parasitemia could also indicate it’s falciparum

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

@MayoClinicINFD It’s Plasmodium (causative agent of malaria), but which species it is might not be clear. From this thin blood smear of peripheral blood it looks likely be falciparum simply due to the lack of mature trophozoid (and even schizont) stages due to sequestration in thin capillaries

@omartheharb @LlinasLab @LuisaBernaZ @LabLeger Thanks for the physical tour down the coast!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

That concludes the #mpm2023 chapter of my trip! 5 days packed with new acquaintances and friends, knowledge exchange, and pure fun (with the backdrop of jet lag)! I’ve surprised myself with the things achieved each day! Thank you @parasitesrule team for putting it all together!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

Making my way to my first #mpm meeting! Looking forward to meeting parasitologists from across the world to exchange ideas and knowledge, as well as to have a good time!

Also greatly honoured and excited at the chance to give a talk during Session V on Monday! See you there!

It has arrived! The #mpm2023 abstract book is available for download.

The @acreme2030 webinar on designing #chloroquine dosing strategies for #COVID19 trials has begun. The first slide from @ricprice99 shows the amazing amount of science that's happening for COVID-19 this year.

And the disparity in #malaria research.

[Nature Methods @naturemethods]

The Meltome Atlas compiles the thermal stability of 48,000 proteins across 13 species ranging from archaea to humans, providing a resource for analyzing protein stability in the context of function and interactions. @kusterlab @savitski_lab https://t.co/vPkqNDjQ14

@sufyazi I think it was at the Tuesday dinner. It was quite some Spanish cuisine!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

And thank you guys for giving me the opportunity to present it!

[Donald Tay @DonaldTWJ]

Awesome experience at #MAM2020 culminated with great science, beautiful food, and definitely made some awesome new friends. Thank you and congratulations organizers and Australia for hosting such a wonderful event
