Find here the latest publication of the Biedenkopf Lab by @ICreytz about the first West African Marburg Virus:

Understand & predict the pathogenicity of emerging viruses 🦠➡️This is the goal of the 🆕research initiative “prEmerge” that unites excellent scientists from Philipps-Universität, Universität Gießen & further external partners 🧑🏼‍🔬& has applied for a DFG Cluster of Excellence: uni-marburg.de/en/fb20/premer…

Danke an alle DRUIDen für dieses tolle 6. Retreat im wunderschönen Schloss Rauischholzhausen! ... und für die großartige Zusammenarbeit bei unserem spontanen #Teambuilding Event 😉🙃🚒 ProLOEWE Forschungscampus Mittelhessen

Proud to see our discovery on antiviral extracellular vesicles in print 🤩 Great work by Rüdiger Groß and all collaborators! Thanks to all involved! Philipps-Universität Universität Ulm

🔬New findings alert! ACE2 steps into the spotlight as a regulator of TMPRSS2 activity in #InfluenzaA virus activation. Exciting discoveries on ACE2's role in respiratory virus spread unveiled through protease assays and cell studies🦠#Virology Philipps-Universität doi.org/10.1128/jvi.00…

#Impfstoffe sind essentiell, um die Ausbreitung von #Infektionskrankheiten einzudämmen. Dies zeigte sich zuletzt bei der #SARSCoV2-Pandemie. Becker lab arbeitet deshalb am Aufbau einer Plattformtechnologie für Vakzine. Laborjournal sprach mit ihm darüber. laborjournal.de/editorials/301…

Yesterday, I had the great opportunity to collaborate with the organization ProLOEWE (Wissenschaftsplanspiel: Wissen vs. Meinung) at a school in Niederwalgern to teach students about the fascinating intersection of science and society, particularly in the field of virology.

What a fantastic two days showcasing #Bunyaviruses (and #Bunyavirologists!) in all their glory! Thank you to everyone, we had a blast! Until next time… #bunya2024

New study shows #Ebolavirus GP can be activated by TMPRSS2 and Cathepsin L, compensating for furin cleavage ✂️This flexibility in proteolytic activation challenges previous assumptions and could impact future therapeutic strategies🧫🔬🧪💉🌍Philipps-Universität Forschungscampus Mittelhessen doi.org/10.1016/j.viru…

Mit dem ProLOEWE-Planspiel "Wissen🆚Meinung" waren wir ➡️LOEWE Center DRUID #LOEWE_White_Box+#LOEWE_Minderheitenstudien⬅️an hessischen Schulen unterwegs: Es war toll, zu sehen wir Ihr Euch Eure🌏🌍🌎 erschaffen+Euch dabei den Wert von #Wissenschaft+#Demokratie spielend erschlossen habt
