Excited to share our recent work describing the broadly cross-reactive and protective flavivirus NS1 antibody in @DWatterson_ @ProfPaulYoung and Prof. George Gao and Yi Shi. 1/n science.sciencemag.org/conte…

It takes a Village. Could not have done this without the resources and intellectual camaraderie at @IcahnMountSinai #Microbiology, the clever perseverance of Axel Guzman-Solis, and the generous collaborators from across the country and in the U.K. 1/ What if we could stop a deadly virus not by blocking one doorway, but by locking two at once? New in @ScienceTM: our team developed a two-antibody strategy against Nipah and Hendra viruses, two bat-borne paramyxoviruses with pandemic potential. science.org/eprint/F8QDVNKDX…. #ScienceTranslationalMedicineResearch

📣 Join our press conference, hosted by @AfricaCDC and WHO principals on the launch of the #Ebola Bundibugyo Virus Disease Continental Preparedness and Response Plan 📆 Friday 5 June 2026 at 14.00 CEST (GMT 2) Livestream via X, Facebook, LinkedIn & YouTube.

AI for structural biology: given the right harness, tools, and compute, your preferred AI agent can tackle tasks such as building a protein structure from a cryo-EM density map. In this case, Claude assembled a structure, compared its reconstruction to the published structure, then used ChimeraX to create these visuals and make this short presentation video.

🔉 CEPI is urgently accelerating the development of three investigational vaccine candidates towards clinical trials in response to the deeply concerning Bundibugyo ebolavirus epidemic. More in the press release: cepi.net/cepi-fast-tracks-th…

As Ebola outbreaks continue, a broad pan-Ebola neutralizing antibody that boosts the breadth & potency of partner antibodies marks a promising step toward next-generation Ebola therapeutics. nature.com/articles/s44298-0… #npj_Viruses @SpringerNature @WHO

Great to see #DRC post the initial genomes from May 2026 Bundibugyo Virus Disease Outbreak. It helps improve diagnostics, track transmission, and accelerate development of vaccines and therapeutics. Transparent, real-time data sharing is essential for outbreak control. virological.org/t/initial-ge…

Impressive! Genome sequence of the virus causing the outbreak in DRC/Uganda shared. That will allow checking which types of assays can be used pathoplexus.org/ebola-bdbv/s…?

Useful and comprehensive review!

Our new paper in @ScienceAdvances shows that TLR7, a viral RNA sensor, amplifies influenza-mediated vascular inflammation and dysfunction in pregnancy, leading to adverse maternal and foetal outcomes. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia… @Gemmagoesviral @noxbiology @OXIBgroup @RMIT_CRSH

Can we program cells like computers — using RNA? Two years ago, our group trained the first language model to decode the regulatory grammar of 5′ UTRs in mRNA, published in Nature Machine Intelligence. Today, we’re excited to share the next step, also in Nature Machine Intelligence: “Programmable RNA translation through deep learning-driven IRES discovery and de novo generation.” We built an AI engine to discover, predict, optimize, and generate IRES elements — RNA control modules that regulate translation initiation. This brings us closer to programmable RNA systems that control when, where, and how strongly proteins are produced inside cells. AI is no longer just helping us read biology. It is beginning to help us write it and harness it. The future of computing may not only run on silicon — it may also run inside living cells. #AIForBiology #LLM #AI4S #AI #RNA #MachineLearning #Bioengineering

SCMB's Dr Rhys Parry explains why the Hantavirus is very different to COVID and why the ‘Andes virus’ won’t cause the next pandemic. Read more in his article in The Conversation - tinyurl.com/4seypccw.

Update on #hantavirus: As of 12 May, 12h00 CEST, a total of 11 cases, including 3 deaths, have been reported. Nine of the 11 cases are confirmed, and the other 2 are probable. All are among passengers or crew on the ship. We expect more cases given the dynamics of spread on a ship and the virus’ incubation period. At the moment, there is no sign that we are seeing the start of a larger outbreak. Passengers and crew are being followed up in their countries, where WHO recommends a 42-day quarantine at home or in a facility starting from day of departure from the ship.
