I spent the last 2 days on @veupathdb and I am so so grateful it’s back online! A work that would have otherwise taken me uncountable days of work. Thank you new funders! Let’s protect our most precious databases!

It's a GRA12 world and we're just living in it! We performed CRISPR screens to identify conserved virulence factors across Toxoplasma clonal and atypical strains and the top hit is a͟l͟w͟a͟y͟s GRA12! and, for the first time, in all mouse subspecies!thread👇biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

With @OdedRechavi @shaharbrr and colleagues we present the revolutionary idea of using brain parasites as brain therapy delivery vehicles and demonstrate the feasibility of the first few steps.

Iron deficiency is highly prevalent worldwide but how it manifests at molecular/cellular levels is poorly understood. The brainchild of @MeganRTeh our new review is a compendium of why cells need iron and what happens when there isn’t enough! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
