This morning we looked at parasites from the host's perspective. #KMCB2024

In session VI, we learned new biology from protein structures #KMCB2024

Last session of #KMCB2024! We learned about gene regulation, including how the famous VSG genes are controlled. parasitesrule

Next week, a new round of parasitologists will be coming to Woods Hole. #KMCB2024 passes the baton to #MPM2024.

Cheers to Christine Clayton, an incredible scientist who has taught us so much about RNA biology of African trypanosomes. #KMCB2024 parasitesrule

Imagine if you woke up this morning and found that the NIH-funded database that holds all of the data that you and thousands of other scientists around the world consult every day was turned off. Gone. Despite many efforts by a community of scientists to lobby NIH NIH Director

Congratulations to Artur Scherf for the award of Prix Duquesne. Thankful to have had Artur as my PhD supervisor—he mastered the fine art of giving enough freedom to grow, but not enough to burn the lab down. 🔬🦠 Institut Pasteur, since 1887 parasitesrule

This essential resource for researchers studying trypanosomes or leishmania is now back online. I’m grateful to the entire team behind these databases, who worked around the clock to overcome NIAID incomprehensible decision. parasitesrule David Roos Penn NIH

I’m excited to hear inspiring scientists at the Health Meeting of La Caixa Foundation. Cap Roig will certainly be stimulating. 🏖️

What a beatiful setting to think about the need for curiosity driven research, how to measure impact and ways to foster innovation. Some of us also bathed in this wonderful picturesque beach. 🏖️ #CaixaResearch #FundaciónlaCaixa CaixaResearch

It’s only progress, if we all progress. 🍾 Thank you CaixaResearch for this wonderful meeting at Cap Roig. #CaixaResearch

I am so happy to be funded by La Caixa Foundation for another three years. I am excited with the collaboration with Claudio A. Franco. I am grateful to all past funders and alumni, who brought the lab to this stage.

Latest graduate from our lab: 👩‍🎓 Lucia Serra ! Grateful to our collaborators and jury examiners for their contributions. bsky.app/profile/luisam…
