I’m excited to announce that we were awarded an #MRFF EMCR grant! An incredible team of EMCRs @UQ_SCMB developing broad spectrum vaccines for emerging RNA viruses. @Ari1saacs @ChrisLDMcMillan @RhysHParry @cusycon @gabefoley Jessica Harrison & Yu Shang Low.
Feeling very grateful to receive an early career development and ECR oral presentation award at Lorne I&I @The_VIIN An amazing few days in Lorne learning about all types of pathogens and host responses. Great science at a stunning location!




Fascinating presentation by Dr Connor Scott from The University of Queensland @UQscience who discussed developments in therapeutic targets for Japanese encephalitis #lorneiandi
PhDone!!! Thank you to everyone who got me through this journey 🥳🤩🥰


Pleased to share the great work of @Ari1saacs Yu Shang Low @cusycon and the team. We used our next generation clamp tech and @CMMUQ1 CRYOARM300 to reveal novel F structures for the divergent Langya and Mojiang Henipaviruses. nature.com/articles/s4146…
Loved presenting my work on DENV antibodies at #AVS11 Keen for two more days on the Gold Coast!

Don't forget to come to SCMB's 18th Annual Research Students Symposium this Friday 18 November 2022 starting at 8:30am. The registration desk and posters will be located in the Hawken Building, Room 50-C207. For more information and the program, go to scmb.uq.edu.au/event/session/…
Super grateful to be able to present some of my PhD work on dengue virus vaccines at the #16vaccinecongress in beautiful Riva del Garda. Excited for the rest of the symposium and to see more of the town.


Enjoying the #16vaccinecongress in the beautiful Riva del Garda, Italy. Some great talks so far including @ConnorAScott talking about his vaccine work!
Exploring Riva del Garda on the eve of the 16th Vaccine congress. Excited to present my work on dengue vaccines tomorrow.



World Mosquito Day. The Watterson lab focuses on understanding the 3D structure of viruses to help guide new vaccines and therapies for important human pathogens transmitted by mosquitoes, such as dengue, Zika and West Nile virus.tinyurl.com/2p8dbtep
Many years of work on the molecular clamp platform have finally been published today. Big thanks to my co authors Andrew and @Ari1saacs, as well as @ProfPaulYoung @DWatterson_ @ChappellDr for leading this project.
The work outlining the use of the clamp domain for emerging viruses is finally published - go check it out! Many thanks to Andrew Young, @ConnorAScott and all those involved! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

My New Years resolutions are already being tested #omicron


My New Years resolutions: 1. Survive. 2. Finish PhD. That’s it.
So excited to finally present some of my PhD work on dengue last week at the @UQ_SCMB student symposium. Thanks to everyone that made the day such a success!


Happy to see that our COVID-19 vaccine patch paper is officially published today in @ScienceAdvances! Great collaborations established and great work done by a lot of people. Thanks to all involved @drdavidmuller @ProfPaulYoung science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Congratulations to our 2022 CSL Centenary Fellows: Associate Professor Daniel Watterson, @UQ_News @DWatterson_ and Dr Stephin Vervoort @WEHI_research and @PeterMacCC @Stephintje. bit.ly/3mfE3yo
