🚨 We found some cool viruses in Singapore!! 🚨 Over 18 months, we screened 17,070 🦟mosquitoes across 17 locations in Singapore, uncovering 🦠viruses that could shape future biocontrol strategies against dengue and other arboviruses! 🔗: doi.org/10.1099/jgv.0.… 🧵👇 (1/)

Check our latest opinion piece, just out in @TrendsMicrobiol! We delve into how the antiviral RNase ISG20 targets viral RNA and how some viruses escape it. @IRIM_life @CIRI_Lyon @CNRSbiologie @Inserm cell.com/trends/microbi…

Fantastic seminar to end the week. Thank you for the wonderful presentation @GaelenBurke!

Stop for a second and imagine: a heat shock protein relocalizes to the cell surface and mediates dsRNA binding and internalization! Intrigued? Read our newly minted paper in @ScienceAdvances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Congrats to all the authors and thanks to reviewers and editor!
Exciting work coming from the @JodyPeters20 lab! C6/36 cells can be grown as a suspension culture to efficiently produce ISF chimera vaccines. Congrats everyone!! mdpi.com/1999-4915/17/2…

Dr Rhys Parry and team have identified the first henipavirus in North America. The Camp Hill virus was confirmed in shrews in the US state of Alabama. Read more here - tinyurl.com/3942u48j
We are not shy about our favourite DNA polymerase in the lab. Special mention goes out to Q5.
