Every grad student on a first date

Recently defended or about to finish your PhD? We have postdoc positions available to study host antiviral immunity. From molecular mechanisms to in vivo pathogenesis to comparative evolutionary approaches, there’s something for everyone. utsouthwestern.edu/labs/schoggins/

A duck has a better workout routine than me 😅

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion…except this one. This is blasphemous.

Excited to share our lab’s latest paper, led by Natasha Hanners, showing that antiviral protein Shiftless inhibits flaviviruses in vitro (as shown by others) & using in vivo knockout model, it protects CNS from Zika infection and pathogenesis. pnas.org/content/118/49…

At long last, I am thrilled to share our preprint that identifies complement component 1q (C1q) as a regulator of gastrointestinal motility. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We embarked on this journey with a simple question in mind: (1/10)

Congrats to #UTSW faculty members Lora Hooper, Ph.D., and Zhijian “James” Chen, Ph.D., on being elected to the National Academy of Medicine. This honor recognizes those who have made major contributions to advancing health care and public health. Learn more: bit.ly/3VGeo1E

This is probably the coolest sports history moment I’ve witnessed in person…especially combined with the fact that he forced overtime (and got the win) when the Mavs were down by 9 points with less than 50 seconds left…

Did you know there are more than 6,000 species of apicomplexan #parasites? Discover how, with advanced #technology, two #UTSW scientists revealed the 3D cellular structure of parasites linked to serious human and agricultural diseases. bit.ly/3Nbw1Tf

Interferon inhibits a model #RNA #virus via a limited set of inducible effector genes. -> embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…

In 1986 Staeheli et al seminal MX1 paper noted re: IFN/ISGs “it is not known...how many of these proteins are required for protection against a particular virus”. 37 yrs later, Phd student Matt McDougal's new paper shines a light. 1/3 embopress.org/doi/full/10.15…

New post-doctoral position available in our lab studying virus-host interactions. If interested contact Don at: [email protected]

I am honored to be a part of the 2023 HHMI #HannaGrayFellows cohort! Thank you to the mentors, colleagues, friends, and family that have supported me along the way!

Congrats to newly minted PhD, Dr. Matt McDougal. Amazing defense today showcasing years of Matt’s outstanding research in antiviral immunity. Wishing you continued success in the endeavors ahead. Matt McDougal @UTSWNews UTSW Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences

A new paper from the lab of Wan Hee Yoon Wan Hee Yoon elucidates the conserved link between pathological ATAD3 gene cluster variants, aberrant cholesterol metabolism, and neurological diseases. Congrats! @brain1878 academic.oup.com/brain/article/…
