Honored that our latest study was chosen as Paper of the Week by IPVS. It was spearheaded by student Jonathan Shin with the help of great collaborators 😄

So proud of my first graduate student for successfully defending her thesis yesterday!

Karen is an incredible scientist with a ton of consulting experience. If you know of any life science industry/consulting agencies in the LA area who are hiring, let me know 🤗

If anyone is looking for a lab technician/manager with nucleic acid isolation, library prep, and sequencing analysis experience preferably in the DMV, my former biologist is looking for a job. She was unfortunately terminated in Feb as part of the probationary employee firings. DM me for her info

Excited to have this second paper out from the QVEU! Postdoc @williambakhache.bsky.social led this effort along with @orrwalk.bsky.social and Lauren McCormick to explore the tolerance of the Enterovirus EV-A71 to substitutions, insertions, and deletions. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I hope it went well - here is a distraction- my childhood golden retriever and pups - Scotland, late 70s.

MIBTP PhD projects are live and I have a project open for applications!

The project is looking at co-infection of the tonsils with HPV and Staph A.
