Please consider nominating CMV Action for this £5,000 prize. It takes 30 seconds but would go a long way in supporting the work of our small but vital charity.
@Weekes_Mike @StrangVirusLab @StantonRich @MJaMurray @ijg25 @ProfAsmaKhalil please share with colleagues, thank you
5 days, 10 charities, £5,000 each – nominate a charity, not-for-profit organisation or community interest company working in the health and wellbeing sector for their chance to win £5,000 each!
Nominations close on the 26th of April: brnw.ch/21wJ2C9

My 2nd project is out in @NatureSMB ! Following up the SUMO-RNF4 paper, from studying the replication-independent DPC repair, we identified TOPORS as a novel SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase, with SUMO1-binding preference. Thanks all in @MailandLab

Postdoc position available in our lab! Are you interested in self-reactive T cells & how costimulatory pathways shape their fate? Project uses in vivo models, spectral cytometry & sequencing approaches. Deadline 6th March.

This year's "Book a Scientist"/"Bestil en forsker" presentations are now open for booking! A great opportunity for anyone in Denmark to hear some exciting science. And if you/anyone you know might be interested in viruses and vaccines, read on (booking links below) (1/4)
You can also book my talk from last year, which focuses on the group of viruses I primarily research. Most viruses come and go (flu, COVID etc), but some settle down and make YOU their home for life. How do they do this, what do they do to you and why do they matter? (3/4)
If either of these are of interest, you can read more here (4/4):

How do #pathogens become more virulent? Read on for a tale of #ancient bones, #ancientDNA, and a very modern danger in the chicken industry… 🧵1/14

An equal-parts fascinating and horrifying article about the response to research into historical connections between the slave trade and my alma mater, Caius College Cambridge. The vitriol suffered by these researchers is absurd. Long but worth your time.

It's only through this article that I have realised the powers that Life fellows hold at the college, which does seem to be holding Caius and the development of the student experience back.

“We estimate that over a 7-year follow-up period, getting vaccinated [against shingles] averts one in five new dementia diagnoses.”
Biggest thing to ever come out of my little group. Pls help spread this finding!
We found clean, CAUSAL evidence that the shingles vaccine prevents a good chunk of dementia cases. So, could a virus cause Alzheimer’s->YES!

Thoughtful and excellent perspective on the issues raised by the unexpected closing of the CPR in Copenhagen by the Novo Nordisk Foundation. Its by our international SAB under the leadership of Angus Lamond. Out in EMBO Reports now.

Latest work from my time at UCL now out in shiny finalised format as a Methods & Resources paper at JBC: jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(2…. Big thanks to Matt, Ellie & Claire for getting this over the line once I had left.
