Happy to share this tutorial on scientific figure preparation I recently presented at @SoCalCryoEM. Learn tools and techniques in ChimeraX, Photoshop, and Illustrator that make your figure prep process more enjoyable and efficient!🎉 #scicomm #sciart doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.56458…

Scientists in @WardLab1 have determined the structure of the critical protein complex that lets #Lassa virus infect human cells. They also identify new antibodies that bind & neutralize the virus, paving the way toward more effective vaccines & treatments scripps.edu/news-and-events/…

Yay! LOVE-ly work, friends! 😜 @Mmedina300kV @benjaminbarad
A Valentine’s Day paper! We are so happy that this work is out. I would like to thank my co-authors @benjaminbarad @nani_grotjahn @danderson_paak @LabWiseman

Welcome to twitter, Aleks @AA_Lab_EPFL! Had a lot of fun working with my former colleague, mentor, and close friend on the logo for his new lab at EPFL which will continue his journey in structural virology and immunology. Can't wait to see what's to come from his lab! 💛

Beautiful work from Philip, Aleks @AA_Lab_EPFL, and the rest of the team! 👏
Incredible work from Philip, @AA_Lab_EPFL, Rogier Sanders (@amsterdamumc) and more! Officially out in @cellhostmicrobe. We describe the presentation of Lassa GPC on nanoparticles and show it can induce neutralizing responses at a novel epitope. Full story: cell.com/cell-host-microbe/f…

They asked me to talk about #MAP7 #MTs and #kinesin but I couldn't stop talking about #trains and #art 😍- and let's just say I laughed a little too hard at my own jokes 🤣! Thank you to @mimi1inh @mcianfro @kellogg_liz and @thermosciEMSpec for having me on #ThePlungePodcast! 🥳
On Ep03 of #ThePlungePodcast @NSF Fellow @lisaeshunwilson @scrippsresearch dishes on her passion for #microtubules, trusting #TheProcess on your scientific journey and how to make it as a newbie in #CryoEM👉tinyurl.com/mrx4hxcs theplunge.org And there's a trailer!😍

The first paper from my postdoc is officially out in @Science today! We solved the first structure of the "spike" protein for the #hepatitisC virus 🦠 (HCV) and pave the way for future HCV #vaccines 💉. Read the full story here: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie… 🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🥰🥰

Really excited to finally share our work on #Lassa's fusion glycoprotein (GPC) on bioRxiv! We explore GPC structures across lineages, antibodies targeting the apex of the trimer (which impede receptor binding), and describe a new NAb! Read more here!🔬 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Many scientists are working toward the gold standard of infectious disease prevention: universal vaccines. But what does that mean? A quick intro! (& as always, a huge shoutout to Matt, Faith, and Drew—teamwork makes the dream work!) @scrippsresearch youtube.com/watch?v=1ROgFuDo…

Kicking off the start of year 4 of grad school with the official NoA for my NIAID F31. 🎉 Feeling deeply grateful for the support of so many lovely scientists, funding agencies, and donors over the years. The adventure continues!

What a fantastic thread with great visual examples! Think outside Times New Roman. 😜
A thread about using fonts/typography in presentations. Decisions about text matter. Just as you can speak the same word in many ways, the way you write text can affect communication, emotion, and attitude. 🧵1/19

🆕 @TheLancet This week it was widely announced we surpassed 6 million global Covid deaths. The real number is likely more than 18 million, as determined by excess mortality at the end of 2021. thelancet.com/journals/lance…
