Nothing like a building evacuation on a Friday to cap off the week. Apparently someone autoclaved a hazardous liquid on our floor (formaldehyde?). There was definitely a weird smell. So much for my sequencing! Glad DNA is stable for a while at room temp 😅
New preprint out! With the Sabino lab in Brazil, we detail the association of YF disease severity with serum levels of viral NS1 protein and syndecan-1 - providing insight into the role of NS1 in YFV pathogenesis led by Francie and Colin in the lab https://t.co/5P53ebRq32

#ASV2023 is officially a wrap. What a fantastic meeting made particularly fun by the amazing people I got to reconnect with and meet. Definitely a good reintroduction to conference life after a *long* time away!
Last night we had a very successful climbers meet-up at @ActiveClimbing during #ASV2023. SO fun connecting with fellow virologist climbers from all over. Maybe we should make this an annual tradition?
One of the coolest parts about #ASV2023 so far has been connecting with fellow @williamandmary alumni. And not just W&M alums, but former Williamson Lab undergraduate researchers!
Such a pleasure reconnecting with Joe (‘12) and meeting @itsmelainaj (‘21). Kurt taught us well!
#ASV2023 has already been amazing, and we’re not even 24 hours in. So much brilliant science by brilliant researchers. Looking forward to the rest of the conference!
Daugherty Lab trainees have made it to #ASV2023! Come check out our talks tonight and learn about the exciting work we’re doing with @Daugherty_Lab
Me: W8-1
@underthelenns: W8-3
@lizfay20: W9-6
Meet Dustin Glasner @drglasner who studies the interface between #viruses and #innate_immunity. Check out his #ASV2023 Talk W8-1: Recognition of non-self viral mRNAs by the IFIT2 and IFIT3 heterodimer #LoveVirology https://t.co/fwnPqjGNzU
With #ASV2023 only a few days away, this seems like a good time to resurface here on Twitter. Come hear all about my research with @Daugherty_Lab on Saturday in the Innate Immune workshop. Can’t wait to connect with my fellow virologists for the first time since 2016!
Our paper on CARD8-mediated sensing of infection by SARS-CoV-2 (and other coronaviruses and picornaviruses) is now out in
@PLOSBiology
! https://t.co/7ro2yhrzVs…Huge congratulations to all involved! More info and thanks to our many collaborators are in the thread below:
@MaddenNFLDirect …are you kidding me? Completely unacceptable. The *only* reason I buy this game is for Franchise. Our league has invested so much time into 23, from a fantasy draft to multiple seasons of gameplay and development. @EAHelp @EASPORTS@EA how are you going to make this right?!
I haven't been on Twitter in a minute. To which platform are all the academics migrating? I've loved Twitter for engaging with the virology/immunology/public health communities. Where to next?
Let it be known, the first time I heard Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” in 2022 was 9:30 am on November 4. Thanks @underthelenns. #christmas2022#startingearly
