Grateful to have received the Blue Flame Award from @Addgene with this amazing team! 🔥 We’re deeply committed to open science — sharing the tools we develop so they can travel far beyond our lab benches and be widely used, thanks to Addgene. #OpenScience #Addgene #BlueFlameAward #HappyDepositor

transiently associates with them, and induces their retrograde transport via dynein and the microtubule network toward a perinuclear region near the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC), where the vRNPs remain sequestered.

Contrary to previous assumptions, we show in this study that the human restriction factor MX1 most potently inhibits human influenza A viruses during the late stages of replication. MX1 appears to sense trafficking viral ribonucleoproteins (vRNPs) en route to the plasma membrane,

A new article estimates that even a 10% DECLINE in MMR vax coverage in the US could lead to 11 MILLION US measles cases over 25 years. IF instead MMR coverage INCREASES by 5%, cases would falled to <10K. Given infectiousness of Measlies, it's VITAL to ⬆️ MMR vax rates. Measles info below 1/2

well after my technical training, I joined one of the best universities in France (ENS Lyon), did a PhD, a postdoc in a fantastic lab in London, and have been a PI for 10 years now… not sure what became of that toxic postdoc though! don’t let anyone undermine you! #WomenInScience 💪🏻💪🏻

Caro Goujon @carogoujon.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

I also have a few examples of my own… as a #FirstGen student, I started with a technical training. during my first intership, a postdoc asked me what I wanted to do afterwards and when I said pursuing my studies and do a PhD, the reply was ‘oh, but you’d need to be clever for that… didn’t you know?´

I was going to say pretty sure my team members grow them at 37C in regular Top10 bacteria but @mollyohainle.bsky.social was faster 😉 (always worth checking the restriction profile though)

Vaccines work! As measles cases have recently been reported in Alaska, Georgia, New York, Rhode Island and Texas, it's important to remember that prior to the introduction of the measles vaccine in 1963, measles killed 400-500 people and resulted in ~48,000 hospitalizations per year.

Graph showing that prior to 1963 when the measles vaccine was introduced, there were around 300,000-700,000 measles cases per year. Within a few years of the vaccine, the number of cases fell below 20,000/year. There were a blips where cases rose, but shortly after the second vaccine dose was recommended in 1989, annual cases have generally been well below 1,000 cases. In 2000, measles elimination was declared in the US. Now we have sporadic outbreaks that typically spread among unvaccinated people. Chart is from Center for American Progress and is based on CDC data on measles cases.
