Today was my talk at Fiocruz-NIH Workshop! @create_neo @CREID_Network @sbviro @famerp @funfarme
Check out Post-doc Marie-France's work in @PLOSPathogens highlighting that distinct nsP4 subdomains are required for proper RNA transcription and translation, having major effects on CHIKV virion production. We are super proud of her and this work!
✨Thrilled to share this new publication in @Plospathogens from my post-doc @staplefordlab 🦟 We built on previous work from Kenny and Kate, back in Pasteur Institute Paris, with our collaborators @olvepeersen and Kate Rozen-Gagnon 🧵⬇️ journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…
Great collab to understand how antibodies elicited by our LION/repRNA vaccine against #CCHFV nucleoprotein mediate protection via an intracellular TRIM21 interaction. Turns out non-neutralizing antibodies can be neutralizing if they can get inside cells. nature.com/articles/s4146…
