Way to go, @SEGallowayPhD! You have certainly been one of my greatest role models!

Meet Summer Elise Galloway - a senior global health policy advisor - who develops policies & works to improve global health security, including deployment of emergency medical countermeasures. What a role model! 🙌

Ft & thx @SEGallowayPhD

#HBD to Marie Curie, the first woman to win a #NobelPrize, the only woman to win twice, and the only person to win in two different fields. In addition to her research, she developed mobile radiography units in World War One, called 'petites Curies,' pictured here. #WomenInSTEM

Next Friday the Emory University Microbiology and Molecular Genetics graduate students are hosting their biennial microbial symposium hosting 6 amazing speakers and I'm so proud of how the students have come together to get this done! Come join us at Whitehead auditorium on 5/3

Graeme Conn and I have a joint post-doc position open to study OAS1 activation by dsRNA and implications for influenza virus replication / evasion. This is an excellent cross-training opportunity in RNA/protein biochemistry & virology. Visit https://t.co/EIjYyFKOpA
Please RT!

Maybe it's not all about sialic acid? Our recent work generating the Human Lung Shotgun Glycan Microarray reveals that flu viruses have the capability to bind to phosphorylated N-glycans. https://t.co/4OQBlLBwxy

[Lauren Byrd-Leotis @lbyrdleotis]

@K_RenfreeShort @theNCFG @cassandrapegg Great question! We started with healthy lungs (ie no respiratory complications), but are very interested in expanding our set to see the effects of smoking or disease on the glycosylation profile of the organ and the receptors that might be used by flu!

@theNCFG is proud to present work done by Dr. Chao Gao in the chemoenzymatic synthesis of 32 Asparagine-linked N-glycans and their utilization in determining unique binding specificities of proteins.

@theNCFG is proud to present a new data visualization tool: GLAD (GLycan Array Dashboard), to visualize and compare #glycan array data. This video gives a short overview of how easy it is to see the structures and compare glycan array data using GLAD. https://t.co/pfBsKNrCSj
