I’m so excited to share Matty Allan great work with support of many lab members now on BioRxiv ! If you are interested in RNA structure , must try SEISMIC : biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super exciting lineup of top notch spatial folks! Can’t wait to see everyone in person! Esp Candace Liu 🙌

Our lab is seeking to hire a scientific writer/project manager to help support our exciting research! Please see the add below and get in touch if you're interested! abrahamlab.med.harvard.edu/open-positions/

Our lab hosted Dr. Stephanie Shames for our department seminar series yesterday. Thanks for giving such a phenomenonal talk and we hope you enjoyed your time at HMS!

Ragon faculty member Alejandro Balazs, PhD, has been awarded a prestigious Avant-Garde Award for HIV and Substance Use Disorder Research from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). #HIV #Research #NIDA #NIH #Award

Excited to share bioRxiv in collaboration with Rachel Fearns at BU in which we determined the cryo-EM structure of the Nipah virus polymerase complex! The complex assembles with a tobacco pipe-like shape with a flexible stem (do you see it?)😃😅biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Was an exciting collaboration Rachel Fearns Lab, Stratton Lab. Shout out to all of the close collaborators and colleagues on this exciting study. Harvard Cryo-EM Center for Structural Biology Harvard Micro Gates Foundation

Our work on mitochondria in collaboration with Antonio Barrientos Flavia Fontanesi online today 🎉

⭐️ Big news! HHMI is investing $300+ million in 26 new #HHMIInvestigators from 19 US institutions. These top scientists will drive groundbreaking research in diverse fields, from neuroscience to immunology to structural biology & beyond. Welcome to HHMI! hhmi.news/4df2eVs

Congratulations Jonathan Abraham, named a 2024 HHMI Investigator! Joining 25 top scientists, guided by the principle of investing in “people, not projects,” HHMI provides Investigators with the time and resources they need to go where their science leads: hhmi.news/4df2eVs

Excited to share our new study @nature led by The PhD Program in Virology at HMS grad student Wanyu wy that explores shifted receptor usage by a unique “submerging” arbovirus, western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV).🤩 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our pre print is out on discovery and quantification of long distance RNA:RNA interactions. Try our new software SEISMIC -amazing work by Matty Allan , super flexible , accurate , and fast for clustering alternative RNA structures and more !! #viruses biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Evolution Tamed Once-Deadly Western Equine Encephalitis. Should We Still Worry? HMS News and Research discusses @AbrahamLabHMS newest Nature paper: "Shifts in receptors during submergence of an encephalitic arbovirus" Read more here: hms.harvard.edu/news/evolution…

Owen & Bartlett labs est. Aug 2024! Grateful to everyone at the Wadsworth Center for the incredibly warm welcome on day 1

Excited to share our most recent paper at Cell in which we used #CryoEM to study conformational dynamics as a determinant of drug selectivity and resistance for the herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Sharing a piece on Triple E🦟. I am fascinated by this deadly virus so we do a lot of work on it in the lab. It's quite a nasty bug - for those who live in regions with activity, need to take appropriate precautions re: mosquitoes. Harvard Micro hms.harvard.edu/news/deadly-ea…

A new paper from Sam Hobbs in the Kranzusch lab (kranzuschlab.med.harvard.edu) demonstrates that animal and bacterial viruses use conserved strategies to defeat host antiviral immunity Cell cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Perhaps one of the coolest experiences I've had as a scientist to hear @AbrahamLabHMS wy paper on western equine encephalitis virus featured on TWiV! "Heartbeats and hoofbeats" Thank you at Vincent Racaniello! (starts at about 51 min) ❤️🐎Harvard Micro youtube.com/watch?v=j5fKOi…
