We are hiring a virologist, preferably with expertise in flaviviruses, as a Postdoctoral Associate in my lab. Please send your CV and cover letter at [email protected]

Interested in learning about how we remember past infections in ways other than our adaptive immune system? Check out some awesome recent work by my labmate Alex Lercher Rice Lab!!

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of SPARK, a year-long research internship program designed to provide outstanding college graduates from backgrounds underrepresented in STEM (as defined by the NIH) with the training and mentorship to become leaders in cancer research.

Happy birthday to #LaskerLaureate and #Nobel Prize winner Charles M. Rice! He was recognized for the development of a system to study #hepatitis C virus replication, and the first to successfully culture the virus in a laboratory. #HepC @Ricelaboratory youtube.com/watch?v=EiSVTJ…

My longtime executive assistant is retiring 😮 and we are looking for someone special to help run our team and support our bioengineering mission and lab culture. Please spread the word! hhmi.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External…

Shira is such an fantastic colleague and mentor and she is going to uncover some amazing viral biology - can’t wait to watch her lab develop and what an awesome home for it 🧬👩🏻‍🔬🦠

Some Rice Lab photo highlights from the #HBV meeting in Chicago. Yingpu Yu won Best Poster (Molecular Virology). Catherine Freije gave a great talk. Group photo also includes Xupeng Hong, wschneider & colleague Frank Chisari. Hep B Foundation ICE-HBV Coalition for Global Hepatitis Elimination

Not entirely sure how we got to this place in chem bio / molecular bio where it's like "if the figure in your paper doesn't go to at least panel 'h' then did you even do anything?" It's not helpful and we're hurting our own field. Those who do peer review can push back on this.

📢 Exciting news! Hepatitis B takes center stage in The New Yorker for the first time, highlighting its impact and the urgent need for action. 🩺💛 Read the article here: newyorker.com/science/annals… Together, we can fight stigma and save lives. #HepatitisB #EndHBVDiscrimination

Current situation for scientists. Trump’s blanket order to stop communication between institutions like NIH and the public has resulted in a complete halt of grant reviews, grant funding decisions. Fun.

This is not getting enough attention- please rt and share- CDC has completely purged any and all information re: HIV and STIs, including guidelines for pregnant women and children/there are many docs who have archived info and trying to put up an alternative site to provide

1) Since there is a lot of confusion about the reduction of the overhead rate on NIH grants to 15% (see here: grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/n…) I'll do a little tweetorial (or X-torial?) about it.
