MHRP @wrair will be at @CROI_Official #CROI2024 in Denver this week! Shoutout to Dr. Rasmi Thomas for her invited talk - you don’t want to miss it! Download our schedule here: https://t.co/fPsn92aqdL

[MHRP @MHRPInfo]

Coming up next at #HIVR4P2024, MHRP @wrair scientists Rasmi Thomas and Kawthar Machmach Leggat present during the session "The Matrix Reloaded: Disrupted Immune Responses, the way for HIV." Check out MHRP's full conference schedule here: https://t.co/N8DQzWaq6v

Congratulations to MHRP @wrair @hjfmilmed researcher Dr. @rasmithomas and team on their new publication in @cellhostmicrobe! Learn more about their work here: https://t.co/8uH1dizXeM #endHIV

HIV disease progression linked to HLA & NK cells. @rasmithomas & Co reveal B∗46 (most frequent HLA-B allele in Thailand) is associated w/ #HIV disease progression potentially due to differences in #NKcell populations https://t.co/yPPaERALQW

Very honored to speak and serve on a panel with esteemed colleagues on ‘Innovations in Intervention: Toward an HIV cure'. #CROI2024

[MHRP @MHRPInfo]

Congratulations to all of the MHRP @wrair researchers and collaborators who presented this week at #CROI2024. Kudos to Dr. Rasmi Thomas for a great talk on identifying a host factor that restricted HIV in vivo using single-cell transcriptomics. Looking forward to #CROI2025!

@lpachter @EdwardTufte What would you recommend instead of a umap?

[Ya-Chi Ho @HoLabHIV]

@ImmunityCP Single-cell epigenetic, transcriptional & protein profile of latent & active HIV+ cells by DOGMAseq identified 4 states of HIV+ cells: IRF, cytotoxic, AP-1 & cell death. IKZF3 helps HIV+ cells proliferate. Congrats to our postdoc @Yulong_Wei!🎊 https://t.co/cKxg1Ljfc4

[Science Translational Medicine @ScienceTM]

Leveraging single cell #transcriptomics, researchers at @MHRPInfo demonstrate that prothymosin alpha acts as a host restriction factor for #HIV replication in people living with the virus��potentially informing future efforts to develop a cure. @rasmithomas https://t.co/isrEJxOm9r

[Ya-Chi Ho @HoLabHIV]

Beautiful study/must read! @RasmiThomas /MHRP today @ScienceTM: Single-cell multiomics identified restriction factor PTMA. HIV RNA+ cells overexpress cytotoxic markers. PTMA negatively correlate with HIV RNA. PTMA overexpression inhibits HIV transcription. https://t.co/zHKExGbduh

[MHRP @MHRPInfo]

MHRP @wrair’s Dr. @rasmithomas & collaborators have identified a host factor in vivo that restricts #HIV replication; may represent a target for potential #HIVcure strategies. Findings published today in @ScienceTM: https://t.co/CpItjXsKEa #endHIV

An isolation period of 5 days after Covid is totally inadequate for most people. New report from >63,000 people. Negative rapid tests are an essential guide

Say good morning to our new medicine laureate Svante Pääbo!

Pääbo received the news while enjoying a cup of coffee. After the shock wore off, one of the first things he wondered was if he could share the news with his wife, Linda.

We are scientists changing recruitment for #ScienceJobs so that it works better for everyone

- By making it fairer: every candidate and lab can access and use jobRxiv, whatever their budget

- By saving labs and funders money: recruitment shouldn’t cost $1000 per ad
