We're excited to share our latest work on hepatitis C virus, out now in eLife - the journal, and on #WorldHepatitisDay no less. Here, we have discovered a novel mechanism regulating HCV entry in to human liver cells. elifesciences.org/articles/71854…

Of course it fits! Ready for team trip to Norway :-D

Our recent study detailing the vaccine-benefits of fusing sE2 oliogomers to VLPs, i.e. increased induction of bnabs. nature.com/articles/s4154…

We've got a fully funded 4y PhD position in our HCV vaccine research group at Amsterdam UMC. PLease check it out: werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/publicatie-… a RT would be very much appreciated..

Yes!! Merry Xmas😁

Please mark your calendars for the 2023 meeting on #HCV #flaviviruses and related #viruses hcv-flavi2023.org in #Atlanta from October 1-5. Great opportunity to connect with old and new colleagues and present your data! Looking forward to seeing everyone there! Please RT

Fun to be part of this collaborative study, now out in Nature Communications, led by IBBR UMD CBMG Ofek Lab. CryoEM structure of #HCV E1E2, a major vaccine target, with genotype 1b sE1E2 (designed secreted E1E2) in complex with neutralizing antibodies. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Great talk at Smögen virology conference by Christina Olesen! How HVR1 insertions can cause antibody escape

And now Joe Grove on mapping membrane fusion for Flaviviridae! #HCV-Flavi2023

Elias Augestad about to unveil the HepC E1/E2 homodimer structure. Cool as a cucumber!

Christina holmboe Olesen presenting on a novel role of HVR1 aa insertions in AR3-like antibody evasion of HepC #hcvflavi2023

Congrats Christina H. Olesen on attaining the phd title and thank you to Thomas Pietschmann and Joe Grove for excellent discussions and to Santse for a great effort as chair! #hvr1 indeed!

Today the Movement for a Free Academia is launching #theGothenburgManifesto to call for an academic system built on en ethics of care, openness, trust and integrity. I encourage all academics to heed this call by reading and signing the manifesto at freeacademia.org.

nature.com/articles/s4158… Turns out the HCV glycoproteins form homodimers! Congrats to everyone involved in this team effort, especially Elias and Christina! Thanks to Lundbeckfonden BRIDGE - Translational Excellence Programme for financial support. nature Elias Augestad Christina H. Olesen kaituo wang Andreas Soerensen

nature.com/articles/s4158… I love that our paper came out side by side with this bad boy! Excellent work Joe Grove !!!

Jens Degett interviewed me on our recent breakthrough structure of the HCV glycoprotein structure in his ERC funded podcast 'Science Stories'. This was really fun and surprisingly difficult:-) Jens did a great job editing our talk! x.com/SciStoriesDK/s…
