Incredibly proud of my former UTSW Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences student Christina Zarek and her paper in PLOS Pathogens!!! There is still so much to learn about the biology of #coinfection with #herpesvirus and #parasites!

Watching this one closely... Link: promedmail.org/promed-post/?i…

Our preprint uncovering how endogenous retrovirus-like proteins reshape fundamental stress granule features is now online! So many awesome discoveries, the coolest being virus-like particles within stress granules! Cryo-CLEM work was led by Martin from @s_mosalaganti lab 1/8

Feeling the loss of Diane E. Griffin - brilliant physician-scientist who changed our thinking about host responses to viruses. Her calm leadership moved mountains seemingly effortlessly at home and around the world, all with poise, civility, humility and much joy.

Last week's ICIS 🦋 @cytokinesociety.bsky.social #cytokines2024 meeting in Seoul was amazing! To celebrate, Science Immunology has just released a free sample collection of papers highlighting the immunology of #cytokines! Articles are free online to read for the next 6 weeks! bit.ly/SciImm_free

Saddened by the news of Dr. Griffin’s passing. As a mentee of one of her mentees (Dr. Beth Levine), my own training and approach to scientific inquiry was profoundly influenced by her discoveries and approach to discovery.

Excited to share our new preprint, in which senior grad student Hunter Kuhn led our discovery of a novel mechanism by which E. coli hemolysin (HlyA) kills epithelial cells! (Spoiler: not by forming pores in the plasma membrane!) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share the finished version of this big project reporting a new mechanism of action for the E. coli alpha-hemolysin! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

🎉 Congrats to Michael D. Thompson of WashU, 2025 Pilot Research Award in Liver Diseases awardee! His research explores how maternal diet may influence the risk of #biliaryatresia in offspring. #AASLD #LiverResearch #PediatricLiverDisease

Excited to share our paper identifying that bat coronavirus HKU5 uses ACE2 from its native bat host and American mink as a receptor. This highlights farmed mink has a high risk intermediate host for HKU5-like viruses. nature.com/articles/s4146… Yale Department of Immunobiology Yale School of Medicine
