Proud to see our data available to the community. Thank you to the team at VEuPathDB for integrating them so quickly & carefully!! Special thanks also to Ben Waldman, hernan lorenzi, and my mentor, Sebastian Lourido. Stay tuned for an analysis of these data in our forthcoming paper!

Excited to share our new paper! We mapped transcription start sites for most #Toxoplasma genes & examined the determinants of TSS choice. Thanks to all who contributed! Ben Waldman hernan lorenzi Sebastian Lourido Find our data on #ToxoDB tinyurl.com/ybq2jayj ! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

My last contribution to the Lourido lab is out! We used orthogonal CRISPRi systems to repress transcription in #Toxoplasma. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Liz Boydston and Sebastian Lourido for making this publication possible. Thank you! 🔬journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mS…

Using novel proteomic experiments, researchers have revealed how calcium plays into the regulation of proteins inside the parasite Toxoplasma gondii with reviewers writing “this work is of the highest quality in the field.” elifesciences.org/articles/80336…

1/ Excited to share our newest preprint in which we describe the discovery of a conserved protein complex necessary for rhoptry discharge in #Toxoplasma biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Hello Twitter! Long time no see 🙈, but I am excited to share our first preprint in which we describe the role of two unique subunits of the divergent ATP synthase in #Toxoplasma: 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share our work Sebastian Lourido presenting the first genome-wide survey of an apicomplexan parasite during infection of an animal host! #Toxoplasma #CRISPR biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It's official🪩🎉! We received an R35 to study inter-organellar communication in apicomplexan parasites. Thank you to everyone involved in this application. If you're interested in working on this topic, please reach out, we are recruiting postdocs! #NIGMS #NIH

50 years after the discovery of the #Toxoplasma life cycle by Frenkel et al. we have reached a milestone by producing pre-gametes in vitro - a feat previously only possible by infecting cats. Exciting details in our latest nature study. Thread below🧵1/8 nature.com/articles/s4158…
