I think I made it, y'all 🥲
A thank you gift from my student Aistė Židonytė (who's looking for a PhD in public health related fields!) featuring Changua, our trash goblin of a dog.

On the plus side…ivermectin is actually a treatment!

Over the last thirteen years, bioRxiv and medRxiv have grown into widely used infrastructure for rapid research sharing in biology and medicine. The reliability and researcher-first values that have d...
For the last three years, we have gathered ALL available Hantavirus and Arenavirus surveillance data. Today, we’re glad to share the largest database ever assembled for these viruses. We hope it helps address questions from the recent ANDV outbreak and guide surveillance.
This started in 2019 as daydreamy PhD student musings with Tatsuya Araki. We're as excited as ever about germinal centers as a platform for experimental evolution.
Many thanks to PIs @victora.bsky.social @matsen.bsky.social, co-1st authors Ashni Vora and Tatsuya, and many other key collaborators!
The amazing teams around Dav Ebengo & Placide Mbala-Kingebeni, alongside the Institut National de Santé Publique and AfricaCDC have led an effort to improve understanding of the current #Bundibugyo Ebola outbreak.

Rumors on the street are that screwworm has been in the US for longer than a couple days and people just weren’t reporting bc of fear of triggering <waves around>
(Decently sure there’s been at least one unreported case in AZ)
