A considerable number of people get it wrong. Can you solve it?

Nature just published a piece on why probability doesn't exist. Lee Cronin said many times chemical reactions are not real. Your genetics professor probably confessed to you before that there are no genes. Biologists still disagree on whether cell types are even real. And we already discussed how there is no such thing as aging. This summarizes one of my favorite parts of doing science - the longer you stare at your cherished concept, the more it disintegrates and becomes non-existent. Seems to be a universal feeling - struggle to describe reality with words and numbers - experienced by many across fields.

🔈Are you an Australian domestic student looking for an industry PhD scholarship with a BIG top-up! Do you want to work with @CSIRO and abalone farmers to help breed abalone resistant to viral infections!! Please re-tweet!! 👇

Research postdoc position on predators-prey (carnivores-ungulates) relationships. University of Bern (Conservation Biology). Please distribute as broadly as you can.

The first review paper from G2P-Japan🇯🇵 is out at mBio @mbiojournal! We discussed the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 (spike) in terms of structural biology. Co-worked with Prof. Hashiguchi's lab @HashiguchiLab. Please read and repost!

Shedding light on measles infection! Human tonsil explant model provides important information on how measles virus infects lymphoid tissue and the associated immune response. @HematoBiologist @AumPatel_97 @jeanklim @IcahnMountSinai

***Hendra@30 UPDATE*** Deadline for abstract submission extended to the 30th of September Key Dates: Abstract submissions close: 30th September Registrations close: 1st November Conference dates: 8th -11th December

This assay forms the blueprint for similar diagnostics to come for many other species. A fantastic collaborative effort with @gervaisha @JessHarrison03 @IsbergSally @DrChuckHenry @MolecularEngeer

Ryan successfully applied antigens produced using the chimeric Binjari virus system to rapid lateral flow assays for the diagnosis of West Nile virus infections. As proof-of-concept, we developed an assay to detect WNV infection of crocodiles.

Calling all Henipavirus Researchers! Please consider joining us in Geelong in December for the Hendra@30 meeting. Registrations are open and we are currently accepting abstracts for consideration. Travel grants available for researchers from LMIC countries hendra30.com/

Virologists are on the move in December 🇦🇺🇳🇿. Let’s talk about 🦠 and create disease solutions. Two awesome meetings back -2- back in Victoria. avs2024.org and hendra30.com. @AusVirologySoc @ali_bat @BarrJenn Come join us- abstracts are open

Finally! One Elsevier journal woke up! Bioresource Technology is kicking ass. Their former EIC, Ashok Pandey, a big time #fraud, #papermill author and corrupt editor from @CSIR_IITR is losing papers en mass! At least 10 retractions! This is how it should be done!

Time for things to get going at #CSG2024

Now for Charlie Manolis to help kick things off with a brief history of crocodiles and crocodile management across Australia #CSG2024

ASRAC Aboriginal rangers talk on their cultural links with crocs, management activities, and croc farm #csg2024 @CrocSpecGroup

Beer, friends, crocodiles at Crocodylus Park #csg2024

Some very exciting news!!! We are organizing a meeting to mark 30 years since Hendra virus first emerged. Where: Geelong, Australia When: December 8-11th 2024 Save the date, start thinking about abstracts and there will be more details soon! hendra30.com
