Still digesting the landmark #Draghireport, but great to see the emphasis on R&I. Very happy with proposal to double support to ground-breaking fundamental research via the European Research Council! And the stance on preserving the ERC's independence. commission.europa.eu/topics/strengt…

So excited to share that our paper on the ever-elusive Langerhans cell is out now! Using a combo of in vivo models and RNAseq we have been able to identify some of the intrinsic and extrinsic signals that drive LC identity. Check it out! Clare Bennett

Why are the kernels in corncobs different colours? The explanation lies in how different genes are expressed. Barbara McClintock studied genetics and "jumping genes"and received the #NobelPrize for her work. Who will receive this year's prize? Find out in October.

🚨Really pleased that our study on introductions of novel H4 and H10 viruses in Australia has been accepted. Two virus incursions, but with contrasting evolutionary dynamics. Thanks to all the NAIWB partners on this one! 👉academic.oup.com/ve/advance-art…

Two years ago, we demonstrated that the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic likely began at the Huanan Market via zoonosis resulting from the wildlife trade. Many unanswered questions remained about the animals themselves. Some answers, out today in Cell. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

We need better mpox vaccines. Rapid Decline of Mpox Antibody Responses Following MVA-BN Vaccination: ‘In this study, we show that the MVA-BN vaccine generated mpox serum antibody responses that largely waned after 6-12 months.’ medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
