🚨 The @AfricaCDC statement on the new #Ebola outbreak in #DRC is deeply concerning. 🔬 This is a non-Zaire ebolavirus outbreak 🧪 13 of 20 samples tested positive ⚠️ 246 suspected cases reported 🕊️ 65 deaths, including 4 laboratory workers This highlights the urgent need for enhanced surveillance, rapid diagnostics, infection prevention and control, and protection of frontline healthcare and laboratory personnel.

Thrilled to share the first major preprint from the lab. Viruses are classically viewed as targets of host sensing. Do viruses also sense and respond to the host? We propose viruses may act as “biosensors” of the host signaling state. A thread👇🏾 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

In sum, our findings suggest the possibility that viruses evolved as biosensors of the host signaling state, unveiling new antiviral opportunities aimed at disrupting virus decision-making.

Another great short essay, by Paul Nurse, 2021: "Theorizing should be encouraged, and theories should be included in experimental papers to put data in context."

Excited to be invited back to my PhD alma mater @IcahnMountSinai for a seminar — will be speaking about virus-host protein-protein interactions, so naturally, wearing the socks to match. @QBI_UCSF

What a gift from @QBI_UCSF: socks with protein-protein interaction maps and outcome booklet for a recent Africa trip! What’s on your foot? Thanks @KroganLab
