UK virologist working on respiratory viruses. There's still no planet B. Views my own.
Super interesting panel discussion at the end of #PandemicSciences24 meeting. Blend of economic, health, regulatory, governmental opinions.
Thrilled to share our new paper in @NatureSMB ! We report DS90, a potent #nanobody against #Nipah and #Hendra virus - the product of an incredible national & international collaboration across 🇦🇺🇨🇱🇨🇳🇬🇧. nature.com/articles/s4159… @UQ_SCMB (Free access preprint provided below 👇)

Really interesting work from our Canadian collaborators 😎😎😎 nature.com/articles/s4429…
Hey @SW_Help can you please please please stop cancelling stops at the last minute, in particular Walton and Weybridge on trains coming and going through to Waterloo. How am I supposed to pick up my kids now 😔😔😔😭😭😭.
In science management speak this is called "stakeholder engagement" #AcademicChatter #lovevirology #AcademicTwitter

12 days left! We have an open PhD position on phase separation of RNA viruses such as Ebola. We want to understand the sequence determinants of phase-separating proteins using proteomics, imaging, structure, and AI. Interested? Apply at tinyurl.com/yd4tudp7. We are B04!
Delighted to be attending the PSI conference again this year. Very important multidisciplinary network.
The International Pandemic Sciences Conference 2024 starts today 🙌 Leading experts from academia, policy & industry are joining us for sessions on: ✅ vaccines ✅ therapeutics ✅ diagnostics ✅ policy ✅ epidemiology ✅ ethics ✅ pathogen biology #PandemicSciences24
We've definitely experienced this problem with recruitment. Costs are really high theguardian.com/education/arti…
We're at #ASV2024 and getting our creative juices flowing, drawing our favourite viruses - can you spot the #RSV #inclusionbodies? 😉 Our post-doc Fatoumatta Jobe will be talking about this tomorrow! @AmerSocVirol @Pirbright_Inst
