Very happy to have this paper out @LancetMicrobe. We show important data on DAA treatment outcomes among HCV infected individuals in Benin.

New research article Seroprevalence of Bas-Congo virus in Mangala, Democratic Republic of the Congo: a population-based cross-sectional study https://t.co/7RdPbrLAfP #tibrovirus #rhabdovirus #OpenAccess #OA

Check out our pre-print describing a CCHFV glycoprotein complex in the pre-fusion conformation! We used several engineering tricks to design our final construct, GP38-GnH-DS-Gc. Great collaborative effort, led by graduate student @Eliza4Science!

Sampling from over 800 bats indicate vast diversity, host-related variability, and high geographic specificity of viruses in East Africa.

We cannot wait any longer for action to be taken to address the issues in clinical academia that we all recognise need fixing. If we delay/continue to ignore the issues, there will no longer be anything left to save…

In new study led by Andrea Loes, we develop sequencing-based neutralization assay that measures replicate curves for hundreds of virus-serum pairs per 96-well plate (see image below) https://t.co/hCkjUEiRpV We apply assay to characterize response to repeat influenza vaccination

Our NEW Primer on #Typhoid fever is live today! @jamesmeiring @ajpollard1 @MelitaGordon5 Check it out here:

Palm was at the British Society for Immunology #BSIConf presenting on behalf of the @cvrinf Preparedness Platform our research investigating the role of AAV2 in mysterious pediatric hepatitis cases. Fueling important scientific discussion and discoveries in Belfast today! 🌟

Today, I and 10 consultant colleagues - on call GI bleeds, split site - received an email @NHSGGC :no renewal of parking permits and advice can pay for off-site private parking - retweet if you think @scotgov should pay for 5 years instead of paying @MathesonMichael mobile bill

I’ve not been on this for a while but worth sharing the great work from #INHSU2023. First a few posters from @NHSGGC @BrownleeHIV @wilson_cat @stephentbarclay flying the flag for the great work our nurses and others do supporting PWUD in Glasgow.

Clinical fellow post in infectious diseases available at the QEUH @NHSGGC starting ASAP. Super friendly and supportive team and a great city to work in! https://t.co/sRFIrt98OE #infectiousdiseases #infection #generalmedicine #idjobs

#Dengue outbreak declared in #Jamaica

One day meeting at the University of Glasgow @CVRinfo @CVRbioinfo on the 18th of October on Evolution, Pathogens and Public Health. Please submit talk and poster abstract before the 25th of September here: https://t.co/5axkUToICn

An important reminder of why strict, enhanced infection prevention & control measures are needed when caring for patients with high consequence infectious diseases, particularly viral haemorrhagic fevers like CCHF. At least the CFR was low in this outbreak

It's official; my paper on the very first bipartite parvovirus and its structure has been published in Nature Communications 😀 I'm so proud to be responsible for representing invertebrate viruses in a Nature journal. 🦗🦗🦗 https://t.co/g61vJ9DT90

❗️Job Alert: We are excited to be recruiting a bioinformatician to work on deployable virus sequencing projects (rabies biased 😉)! Position with @UofG_SBOHVM, embedded within @CVRbioinfo. Please share: ➡️ https://t.co/jbMyEDS04f #postdoc #position #postdocposition

Proud to contribute to this piece of work between @EdinUniOrtho, @edin_EID, and @ndorms; lots more to be done for this under-served group of patients who experience a worse pre-treatment quality of life than almost every other chronic condition

Yesterday I received distressing news about a young boy with rabies. In April, dog owner took him to local dispensary after bite. Despite advice, he was not taken 10 hrs to hospital for emergency vaccines ($50 for 1-week course). It is now too late... trigger warning🧵@UAR @GARC
