J. Craig Venter Institute
@JCVenterInst
Active on the blue site @jcvi.org. JCVI is a not-for-profit genomic research institute dedicated to advances in human health & the environment
Disruptions or reductions in funding from NIH may irreparably harm biomedical research efforts at J. Craig Venter Institute, the broader research ecosystem, and thus public health. Our statement: jcvi.org/media-center/s…
Big news: The Quantum Biology Institute is partnering with @jcventerinst to explore the multiomics of weak magnetic field responses in microbial model organisms. This collaboration will leverage their genomic expertise and advanced facilities to drive quantum biology forward.…
Researchers from @JCVenterInst, @Loeffler_News, and @ILRI have developed a synthetic genomics viral engineering platform to accelerate ASFV vaccine development, tackling a disease that costs the pork industry billions. Read: synbiobeta.com/read/synthetic…
@ILRI @Loeffler_News @JCVenterInst researchers design tools to develop vaccines more efficiently for #Africanswinefever virus. The reverse-genetics system could be applied to other viruses including #lumpyskindisease, #Zika, #chikungunya & #Ebola. ilri.org/news/researche…
Tools Designed to Develop African Swine Fever Virus Vaccines More Efficiently A recent study estimates if ASFV reached the U.S. it could result in economic losses exceeding $50 billion over a ten-year period. @JCVenterInst, @Loeffler_News, @ILRI hubs.li/Q03dFDSy0
