On April 15, 1994, Kennedy married architect and designer Mary Kathleen Richardson, a close friend of his sister Kerry, aboard a research vessel on the Hudson River.[424][425] Kennedy has six children, two with Black and four with Richardson.[426]

During his marriage to Richardson, Kennedy was known among his friends for sending explicit nude photos of women that they presumed he had taken, according to Vanity Fair.[28] He reportedly engaged in multiple affairs during the marriage.[427][28][428] His friends later called him a "lifelong philanderer".[429][430] On May 12, 2010, Kennedy filed for divorce from Richardson. On May 16, 2012, Richardson was found dead in a building on the grounds of her home in Bedford, New York. The Westchester County Medical Examiner ruled the death a suicide due to asphyxiation from hanging.[431]

Before her death, Richardson had discovered Kennedy's personal journal from 2001, in which he recorded sexual encounters with 37 different women. According to Kennedy, Richardson passed the journal along "to her sisters with instructions that, if anything happened to her, [it should be] published in the press".[432][433] During their divorce, Richardson began exhibiting signs of drug and alcohol abuse and psychiatric distress.[425][434][435]

After her death, Kennedy won a court case against Richardson's siblings to have her buried alongside fellow Kennedy family members in St. Francis Xavier Cemetery in Centerville, Massachusetts, instead of closer to her siblings in New York. Shortly after her burial, Kennedy had her body disinterred and moved to an unmarked grave in an empty area of the cemetery.[436] Kennedy's niece Saoirse Kennedy Hill was buried next to Richardson after her death from a drug overdose at age 22.[437]

Aedes aegypti VLG-1 challenges the assumed antiviral nature of Vago genes - BMC Biology Background Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) such as dengue virus (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) pose a significant threat to global health. Novel approaches to control the spread of arboviruses foc...

🚀 Excited to share (with a little delay) my first first-author publication on #Vago genes in #mosquitoes! 🦟 🦠 Have a look to see how we questioned a mosquito immunity dogma and challenged the existing understanding of Vago-like genes as antiviral factors ⬇️

J'ai déjà travaillé à la réalisation d'un criblage par siRNA pour connaître plus finement les mécanismes d'infection par le CHIKV.

Par génie génétique nous pouvons suivre l'expression des gènes impliqués dans ces processus d'infection chez les bactéries comme les cellules hôtes. nous pouvons aussi tester des stress environnementaux et étudier les réponses (résistance aux antibiotiques par exemple)

Nous développons des systèmes de culture cellulaire mimant des alvéoles pulmonaires en puces microfluidique. l'idée est de suivre en microscopie à epifluorescence l'infection de macrophages par M. Tuberculosis, dans un environnement proche du vivo.

This paper has 6 sets of overlaps, and the journal issued a correction by replacing 5 panels.

Kansas tuberculosis outbreak is now America's largest in recorded history Kansas public health officials say the state's ongoing tuberculosis outbreak is the largest since the CDC started reporting TB cases in the 1950s.

🇺🇸 Avec 66 cas actifs et 79 infections latentes*, l'épidémie de #tuberculose au Kansas est désormais "la + importante jamais enregistrée aux États-Unis".

Les autorités s'attendent à "davantage" de cas de cette maladie bactérienne, parfois mortelle.

Dengue Virus Effects on Aedes aegypti Mosquitoes: Genetic Manipulation or Byproduct? A new research review examines how carrying dengue virus affects Aedes aegypti mosquitoes' life cycle and behavior and whether the virus manipulates its mosquito host—or if changes are byproducts of o...

A new review indicates that Dengue virus affects its mosquito hosts in ways that possibly increase disease spread. 🦟🦠

E.g. it may make infected mosquitoes more active, more likely to bite, more likely to re-bite if interrupted, and feed longer.
