#IUIS2025 is happening next year in Vienna, Austria, from August 17-22. Join us for a week of cutting-edge immunology, groundbreaking research, and global collaboration. Early registration and abstract submissions are now OPEN at iuis2025.org! See you there! 🌍

Zum #WeltAIDSTag am 1. Dezember starten wir wieder ein Takeover mit #Infektionsforscherinnen: Die Virologin Hanna-Mari Baldauf Baldauf Lab und die Immunologin Christina Karsten Christina B. Karsten werden mit uns Infos und Einblicke aus der Forschung zu #HIV und #AIDS teilen. Stay tuned!

Hello, we are Christina B. Karsten, Assistant Professor at the Institute for Research on HIV and AIDS Associated Diseases at the Uniklinikum Essen and Baldauf Lab, group leader at the MvPI at the Universität München. We will take over the Infect-Net channel and inform you about #HIV. #infectneXt

What is #HIV? HIV stands for the human immunodeficiency virus. It attacks the immune system, specifically the CD4+ T cells, and is the cause of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (#AIDS). It is transmitted as shown in this illustration and causes life-long infections. #infectneXt

Postdocs do a lot of invisible labor in academia. The majority of which is helping PhD students. Many of us are happy to do it, but when students fail to acknowledge that help, especially in front of the PI, it kinda kills the vibe. Give people credit for their work.

1. I feel like this is such obvious advice that it's taken for granted & so no one says this to young scientists but READ PAPERS, read all the papers. As you move up in your career you'll have a lot less time to do this. Read everything that appeals to you not just in your field

Looking back at old emails from my PhD in the 🇺🇸, and it amazed me at the degree of autonomy and independence I had as a PhD student. And the kinds of forthright conversations I could have with my supervisor. Truth be told, I don't think most faculty in India have this degree

ASM is partnering with GfV - Gesellschaft für Virologie (GfV) to advance virology research! ASM’s Journal of Virology (JVI) is now a GfV-affiliated journal, offering member discounts and fostering new opportunities for collaboration. Read the press release: asm.social/2g0

Thank you international society for antiviral research for this recognition, of a career that I built based on my uniqueness and leveraging my success and influence to knock down walls to bring wider perspectives and out of the box ideas to light.

Congrats Prof VignuzziLab for receiving the Diversity in Science Award, an Award of Excellence to a single scientist of any group in our Society who has made outstanding contributions to the field of Antiviral Research, by the International Society for Antiviral Research (ISAR).

Agreed! Reason number 1 I am not leaving X yet: the amazing science I would miss without ut! 👇👇

Being a #scientist is really difficult right now. Hanging on to the good and celebrating wins. My grad student shared the coolest data with me yesterday. It was such a pick me up. Learning new #immunology and creating knowledge. Our jobs matter

To fellow journal reviewers & Editors: remember there’s another human on the receiving end. A student (1st author) & I’ve had a paper under review for MONTHS. Just received comments, starting w/ “This paper is poorly written” w/o additional context. Please be kind & constructive.

Today, I complete 15 years as a faculty member at #IISERPune. I have attempted to put together a list (based on my blogs) of some lessons that I have learnt so far. A disclaimer to note is that this list is by no means a comprehensive one, but a text of self-reflection from my
