Huge thanks to @SpawGlass1953 for hosting a Fat Tuesday shrimp boil for our employees last week! Food and fun were had in honor of animal research & facilities staff at #SNPRC. Spaw Glass knows how to throw a party & how to make construction magic happen!

Technology advancements can help lead to scientific advancements. Learn how #SNPRC @txbiomed researchers are using new technology to pinpoint ways to treat and control #tuberculosis, still one of the world’s deadliest diseases.

More than 5 million people in the U.S. are living with #Alzheimer’s, a traditionally difficult disease to study. Now, scientists at @txbiomed #SNPRC have identified an animal model that can help researchers better study treatments and interventions.

Two of the world’s deadliest infectious diseases, TB and HIV/AIDs, are far worse when they occur together. Now, #SNPRC researchers at @txbiomed have pinpointed an important mechanism that could lead to a new way to treat this co-infection.

Latent #tuberculosis can become active and infectious without warning, which is why researchers at @yerkesnews and @txbiomed #SNPRC are collaborating to develop better treatments. They discovered a specific combination of antibiotics could help.

Malaria causes untimely deaths of more than 400,000 people globally each year. Researchers at @txbiomed #SNPRC recently determined usng a genome sequencing technique may help block disease spread and more.

Globally, 1.8 billion people are infected with #tuberculosis (TB) — but testing remains a long and fairly expensive process. Scientists at @txbiomed #SNPRC recently addressed this problem by developing a cheaper, faster, easier TB test.

Are the spread and progression of HIV influenced by genetics? Researchers at @txbiomed #SNPRC discovered evidence that suggests the differing ways our bodies respond to the disease could be inherited.

We’re all getting older—but why do our bodies show signs of age? Researchers at @txbiomed #SNPRC discovered what may be some of the fundamental causes of aging in humans.

Could having malaria actually help a person fight Ebola? Perhaps, in some cases. Researchers at @txbiomed #SNPRC are engaged in ongoing research to further examine how the two diseases interact.

For some people, hunger may really be “insatiable.” According to recent research from scientists at @txbiomed #SNPRC, genetics could play a role in obesity by affecting one specific appetite-suppressing protein.

Best of luck to Dr. Ashley Nelson, who received an Early Investigator Travel award to present her work on a vaccine regimen to reduce the risk of HIV transmission from mother-to-child at the 37th Annual Symposium on Nonhuman Primate Models for AIDS! @ashnicole_810 #DHVI #SNPRC

HIV/AIDS patients are especially susceptible to #tuberculosis infections due to compromised immune systems. Scientists at #SNPRC have discovered this is due to infection of specific T cells in the lungs, a revelation that could lead to the development of targeted vaccines.

During the #Zika outbreak in 2015, many children were born with brain abnormalities and other dysfunctions. Now, scientists at @txbiomed #SNPRC have discovered a nonhuman primate research model which may mimic human Zika symptoms closer than any other. https://t.co/MkSCLPKX6E
