Still looking for that perfect match -- postdocs, senior grad students interesting in virus-host interactions at the species barrier please get in touch! ABQ is a great place for outdoorsy folks or anyone who has an affinity for tacos 🌮⛰️🌮
New Year new you! Now recruiting an additional postdoc to join our ranks. Initial project will be on virus-host adaptation & genetic screening with lots of room to develop. Please RT :) thebakerlab.com/opportunitie…

1/n Very excited to share the latest manuscript from my lab, in collaboration with @BAMdoesscience. This project was led by @HannahDespres, who looked very hard for SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in Vermont wildlife. Surprisingly, we didn’t find any! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
