In my first Drosophila study at @SalehLabParis , we found that: 1. Enteric viral infections accelerate aging. 2. Even if the infection is cleared, aging process remains triggered. 3. Accelerated aging correlates with reduced lifespan. 📑Preprint: https://t.co/JYoaHfwxUy

Many will endure hardships. For me (and committed colleagues), it means the struggle to defend science + counter antiscience forces becomes more complicated/daunting. This time we’ll need better support from the societies, college presidents, elected leaders who care. Tough times

Excited to share the first paper from the PhD of @mikaelagbell . Mikaela meticulously re-created the Australian insect-specific alphavirus, Yada Yada virus – one of only 5 insect-specific alphaviruses discovered to date. https://t.co/T6sODZpC4h
