- Reposted by Marine Petitwarwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fa... I am advertising for a PhD position in my group. We'll be investigating how pathogenic RNA viruses replicate in the nucleus. The project will teach cryoEM/ET, virus culture, and in vitro assays. If you're interested reach out and I'd be happy to have a chat.

- Reposted by Marine Petit⚡️Thrilled that #VirtualLab is published in @nature.com! www.nature.com/articles/s41... We created a team of AI agents to mirror my Stanford lab 🤖. Led by a PI agent, the AI scientists ran their own group meetings and discovered effective binders to new CoVID variants that we validated.

- OMG! I can finally share my joy to see my SFTSV work published in @natcomms.nature.com! This adventure started by the award of my MSCA grant and my move to the Kohl and @brennanlab.bsky.social at @cvrinfo.bsky.social. Let's chat about how we discovered novel tick anti-viral effectors!
- Ticks are vector of many pathogens including hemorrhagic fever virus like SFTSV. Identified in 2009, SFTSV interaction with its tick vector remains understudied. To bypass limited understanding and tools available I used my system virology expertise to explore tick-virus interactions!
