In the past, BAPS Charities Walk events have supported organizations such as Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, the American Cancer Society, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta, and other local community initiatives.
Please support my walk by making a donation.
I am thrilled to share our latest collaborative study with the Pulendran Lab at Stanford University--mucosal delivery of a unique liposomal formulation that can provide durable pathogen-agnostic protection in mice.

I am honored to be elected as a Fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology Class of 2026. Deep appreciation to my collaborators and mentors, who helped shape this journey. Especially grateful to my former mentor, Mark Heise, who was also elected.

Incredible paper by the Grakoui lab at Emory University! Arash and his team describe how liver infecting viruses generate virus-specific plasma cells in the liver independent of secondary lymphoid organs. Use of spatial transcriptomics to show iHALT!

I know this is not a science related post but I wanted to reach out to my friends and colleagues. #SpiritOfService #BAPSCharitiesWalk
In this recent interview, Dr. Paul Offit highlights three tactics used by RFK Jr. during his HHS confirmation hearing:
1) Ignoring studies that contradict his views.
2) Citing flawed research that supports his stance.
3) Accusing objectors of being influenced by Big Pharma.

Strategies used by RFK Jr. to promote disinformation.

Trump's proposal is ILLEGAL & amounts to an indiscriminate funding cut for research centers of all sizes, NOT just Ivies. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, & derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction.
Last year, $9B of the $35B that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) granted for research was used for administrative overhead, what is known as “indirect costs.” Today, NIH lowered the maximum indirect cost rate research institutions can charge the government to 15%, above what many major foundations allow and much lower than the 60%+ that some institutions charge the government today. This change will save more than $4B a year effective immediately.
🚨New from the Suthar Lab! 🚨
Our study, published today in Lancet Infectious Diseases, shows that the updated KP.2 COVID-19 vaccine enhances neutralization against emerging JN.1-lineage variants, including XEC.

So excited to join the Division of Immunobiology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital MC in March 2025. My lab will study how RNA biology regulates and is regulated by infection and immunity.
We'll be hiring at all levels in 2025 - stay tuned!

Intriguing study in Science from @nandangokhale and colleagues @UW re how cellular RNAs regulate an antiviral immune signaling complex dubbed MAVS. Excited that Dr. Gokhale will be joining the faculty @CincyChildrens in March. @ThePasareLab #immunology science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
How do labs worldwide assess SARS-CoV-2 antigenicity consistently? Our collaborative study with WHO & 15 labs reveals insights into neutralization assays, aiding global variant tracking & vaccine updates. Findings support lab networks like WHO CoViNet. mdpi.com/3093412
