1 year! We are celebrating our lab anniversary 🎉 1st students, 1st experiments, 1st failures, 1st successes, 1st grant awarded, many rejections, 1st awards/fellowships of students. 1st socials! What a challenging but fun year! Here’s to more! 👩🔬🪱🦟@UCBerkeleySPH @berkeleyMCB
We are super excited about our lab's first manuscript & being selected for the cover of the issue! We found that when clocks of host, parasite and mosquito align, transmission⬆️. Major congrats Ines, @BriannaPar7 and Rushlenne!

How remarkable was this milestone, when scientists in the lab are selected for talks and posters?! And with a bang 🎆! Way to go - super congrats Rushlenne on the 'best talk' award & @HeleneBorrmann on the poster honorable mention at #MPM2024! 👩🔬
@UCBerkeleySPH @berkeleyMCB
To close the Session VI #MPM2024, first year graduate student, Rushlenne Pascual from Dr. Filipa Rijo-Ferreira at Berkeley Public Health, take the stage to talk about Circadian rhythms mediate malaria transmission potential @parasitesrule
I had a blast visiting our neighbors @NovartisGH, discussing science and seeing dear friends! Loved the tour of the lab, the state of the art robotics to assist drug screens - was a scientist Disneyland. 🤩 Thanks @ampliconX @ErikaLFlannery and Judith for the invitation.
Listening to @Filipa_Ferr talk about her amazing work is the perfect way to kickstart my motivation post-holidays!

We'll also have an AMA Panel of #newPIs in #Parasitology who recently started their labs for Postdocs interested in transitioning to independence or going on the job market soon!!!
#Postdocs_in_Parasitology come ask us anything at 3PM on Sep 15 in Clapp Auditorium @WoodsHole!

Hey Parasitology trainees, join us at the Kinetoplastid Molecular and Cell Biology meeting in September in Woods Hole.
Here is why Filipa Rijo Ferreira enjoyed it. 🥰
Abstract deadline: June 24th .
@Filipa_Ferr @parasitesrule
And our first ever lab manuscript is published!! 🥳💪🏽 here our talented postdoc @HeleneBorrmann reflects on how tissue biology changes across the day and its impact on pathogens.
Thanks for the opportunity @KafsackLab @PLOSPathogens
