Ending 2021 with a nice big bow of my first, first-author publication! What a labor of love this was, and I am so, so proud to finally have it out. Entering 2022 with high hopes and big plans🥳

@LaurenCarneval2 @MCB_Illinois @UIUC_Biochem @VetMedIllinois Congrats Lauren! Can’t wait to see where you go next!

[Katie Frye @KatieFrye15]

Really interesting work from an amazing collegue and friend I miss everyday. Congrats Jacqui! Australia is lucky to have you back.

[Jacqueline Morey @MicroMorey]

Very excited for part of my postdoc work to be published in @mSystemsJ this week! I never thought I’d publish a full bioinformatics paper but I’m so glad I got out of my comfort zone and learnt some new skills for this project https://t.co/osZxpPwbK6

A collaborative effort at #ILLINOIS to support COVID-19 testing has resulted in the creation of 200,000 tests across the state.

At the peak of the operation, the group produced enough viral transfer media to support a quarter of all tests in Illinois.

In the midst of all this uncertainty I have been grateful to get to help on #teamVTM. Each of these hand prepared, labeled, and packed tubes get sent around the state to work towards increasing testing! Thank you @_chris_brooke for organizing and @IGBIllinois for lending space!

[MCB PhD Programs at Illinois @illinoismcbgrad]

After being tested for Covid-19 there needs to be a way to preserve the sample for shipping. VTM is a solution that preserves that sample. Thanks to @_chris_brooke, @IGBIllinois, and all the volunteers! #ILLINOISResearch
