How it started for Rockefeller University grad student Sally Kornbluth and how it’s going Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Toxoplasma gondii causes lifelong, occasionally severe infections in humans. In this news story Live Science , I discuss a newly discovered Achilles’ heel in the parasite that may bring scientists closer to developing a cure. livescience.com/health/viruses…
Thank you Kamal Nahas for the wonderful write-up of our work! livescience.com/health/viruses…
So excited to see this out in press! Congratulation to you and your lab Clare Harding!

Just signed the support letter acknowledging the immense value of ToxoDB and sister databases in research. Inviting all PIs who see these databases as fundamental omic tools to do the same. Your signature matters! VEuPathDB Sebastian Lourido Omar Harb upenn.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8e…
