Looking forward to hosting @MikeJayMcD's virtual talk tomorrow for @idlabs_astar and #SGBUG on bacterial gene swapping in the antimicrobial resistance pandemic #AMR Register to listen in: zoom.us/meeting/regist…
Looking for motivated PhD students to join the lab. Some really cool fundamental projects on virus-host interplay at the immunology level, or more translational projects. More info on the available scholarships below. a-star.edu.sg/Scholarships/o…
Just published in @NatureComms! We show that Usutu virus is the only mosquito-borne flavivirus to resist ISG20-mediated inhibition, thanks to a unique domain in its 3'UTR that protects its genome from degradation. A project led by @JimZPhD at @IRIM_life. rdcu.be/dVMK1
snas.org.sg/saseaf SG Academies South-East Asia Fellowship (SASEAF) Programme. Great opportunity to do a 2y postdoc with an @idlabs_astar PI in Singapore!!
This kind of work is why I got into virology. Viruses are experts in manipulating host immunity and there is so much more to discover on acute phase, chronic & long term consequences of infection!!
A new type of microbe discovered in the human gut! Called obelisks, they can create their own proteins that are entirely new to science. The team named their proteins “oblins.” Scientists scratching their heads about it biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Prestigious 2y postdoc fellowships for candidates of ASEAN countries with a focus on infectious diseases this round. Great opportunity to work with @idlabs_astar PIs!! snas.org.sg/saseaf
Congratulations to Sanjith for winning the A*STAR Science Award (Poly)! Under the mentorship of @carissimo_g and Dr. Claire Honney, he was introduced to the world of microbiology, molecular biology, and virology, fueling his passion for scientific research. #astaridlabs
Great project, great PI, in a nice historic city on the french Mediterranean coast!!
The ERC project RosaLind is looking for a postdoc in Microbial Ecogenomics! Come join our team to study microbial population genomics and symbiosis in mosquitoes. Please RT! #Montpellier #anvio #InfectiousDiseases @MIVEGEC @INRAE_DPT_SA @ERC_Research

Only a few weeks left for international students to contact a PI in @idlabs_astar and apply to this PhD scholarship and to awesome science on infectious diseases! 👇 a-star.edu.sg/Scholarships/f…
So true!
Me engaging about research with my lab or faculty colleagues: “wow this job is amazing, how am I lucky enough to get paid for it?” With grant/department administration: “maybe they’re right and me just finding another job would make both of our lives easier?”
Farewell to @kttyj2603 who had an awesome 6 months internship in the lab. 1 review paper coming out soon and some super cool results to build on in the future. Look out for her! Great things to come, next step at @imperialcollege and beyond!!
