Oh look!! 😀 We're featured on the Department of Biomedical Sciences website:
bmi.ku.dk/english/research/m…
Check us out, especially if you're looking for a place to do your Master's project, Ph.D. or postdoc starting sometime next year!
Have a great weekend,

Thank you! to @lundbeckfonden for providing my group and I the LF Ascending Investigator 4-year funding we need to develop better structural models of the blood brain barrier in all its poorly understood glory!

That moment when your 4 gpu cryo em PC finally comes online, but the screen only works through the vga output!
The future is here.. and it's analog 😅

Missed the release of this one by about a week - whoopsies:)
We show how common small insertion the envelope protein motif, HVR1, can regulate virus neutralization!

Jens Degett interviewed me on our recent breakthrough structure of the HCV glycoprotein structure in his ERC funded podcast 'Science Stories'.
This was really fun and surprisingly difficult:-) Jens did a great job editing our talk!

Deadly virus reveals a secret. About fifty million individuals worldwide are affected by chronic hepatitis C. Now the virus has revealed a secret to a group of researchers in Denmark. Listen to podcast:

Turns out the HCV glycoproteins form homodimers! Congrats to everyone involved in this team effort, especially Elias and Christina! Thanks to
@lundbeckfonden
@UCPH_BRIDGE

Today the Movement for a Free Academia is launching #theGothenburgManifesto to call for an academic system built on en ethics of care, openness, trust and integrity. I encourage all academics to heed this call by reading and signing the manifesto at freeacademia.org.

I would like to give a big thanks to all who have contributed to this study, but especially @augestad_elias for taking a chance on this some 5 years ago. It would not have been possible without @CHOlesen
@kaituowang, Pontus Gourdon and a great team effort!

Key finding #3: We uncover a novel internal TM in E1, which is packed closely with the canonical C-terminal E1 and E2 TMs. suggesting that the primary fusion peptide is not in E1.

Key finding #2: The homodimer (2 x E1/E2) has a highly conserved hydrophobic E2 interface of approx. 1200 Ų, which looks (a little) like a figure eight.
