Excited to present our newly published research article at @NatureComms on RSV molecular epidemiology! We demonstrate how leveraging clinical, public health, and genomic data can elucidate RSV patterns in the COVID-19 era. @HultquistLab @NU_PathoGen bit.ly/49KCBJL

when the vibes are so bad you simply must dip. despite not actually being infected yourself. #fluorescenceFriday (SARS-CoV-2 in magenta, multiciliated cells in green, 1º human airway epithelium imaged en face)

Not convinced the inverted LUTs help with intelligibility here, but they certainly are pretty. #microscopymiercoles

Excited to share our new preprint covering the continuation of our work developing an immunoPET probe to study SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis. Thanks to @GFPvirus and members of the @HopeLab_NU for their help in this project biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

An immunoPET probe to SARS-CoV-2 reveals early infection of the male genital tract in rhesus...

Because of the recognized systemic nature of SARS-CoV-2 infection, a non-invasive and unbiased method is needed to clarify its spatiotemporal dynamics in vivo after transmission. We recently develo...

Fresh off the press from our Lab! Check it out! First author from @patjmadden with @mmcraven53 @mshoaib_arif @MarkEBecker @AnnMarieCarias @GFPvirus describing a crazy, cool probe to detect sites of #SARSCoV2 infection! #Science

Just in time for Christmas. Paper describing the first phase of our efforts to develop a probe to detect sites of SARS-CoV-2 infection anywhere in the body. Check it out. frontiersin.org/articles/10.…. PS: The radio-labeled probe works! Get ready! Cool and very scary at the same time

Nothing like spinning up a nice ball of mucus at the end of a long hard experiment. Differentiated human airway epithelium, ~80 hrs. #FluorescenceFriday

ALT a swirl of mucus a few mm across spins in a circle, pulling additional bits of mucus from the edges as it goes. looks like the eye of jupiter but fast.
