Congratulations!!
Excellent morning of vaccine talks at the EMBO Lecture Course on RNA Virus Infection and Immune Responses meeting at the Regional Centre for Biotechnology India. With my friends Giovanna Barba Spaeth and Tineke Cantaert from the Pasteur Network.
Ready to fly. See you in Faridabad for the EMBO RNA viruses meeting! Looking forward to meeting my colleagues from around the world and young Indian scientists attending the meeting!
I’m heading out today to present and attend the EMBO RNA virus meeting in India. See you all soon!

Thank you to the International Meeting on Respiratory Pathogens (IMRP) for hosting a dinner for the locals involved in the meeting held this year in Singapore.
A chance for Fadi and me to meet up with the national players in public health and clinical sciences.
Another thing I love about Singapore. Create fun spaces in public where people can interact. New installation of racket game net in Tanjong Pagar. Pick a racket or a pan !
The future of vaccines is the future of vaccines itself!
Listen to Apriori Bio CEO Craig Williams lay out how new vaccines will improve public health and better outbreak response.
Our group is partnering with them in a match made in 🤩 science heaven 🤩.

Today, Fish Hui Xian Poh presented this work by groups at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing. They dissected alpha virus SFV into nsPs, Capsid, Envelope to make VLPs for RNA or protein delivery - in some cases to target the blood-brain barrier. Very cool work!

Hello my friend! Welcome back online!
A wonderful visit from Peggy, our lab’s retired admin assistant. She brought me my own name stamp in Chinese characters handmade in Shanghai ! ❤️

Happy birthday to Judy and Dinh! Celebrating with Galette des rois and Kouign amann during lab meeting.
A*STAR/KCL PhD scholarship available!
Dream of doing cutting-edge research, travelling between continents, and becoming obsessed with modelling infections in zebrafish?
My lab and @oehlerslab.org are looking for you!

Voting for the international society for antiviral research board members is open! Vote for me, if you want me aboard, or vote any of the great colleagues that have added their names. Join ISAR and attend the annual conference we hold around the world.
I’m happy and proud to be part of this scientist’s career. First as research assistant, seeing him through an engineer’s degree, and now passing his PhD qualifying exam!
Bravo Thomas!

First lab meeting of 2026! And it was a great one, with beautiful results! These folks are brilliant! Bravo to Judy and Denzel for their beautiful work on alphavirus proteomics and flavivirus antivirals!
Welcome to our lab Dylan Kwan, a coop exchange student from
Simon Fraser University in Canada!
My first lead author paper is out with Ben Kerr and @alisonfeder.bsky.social! We found that making an antiviral too strong can sometimes make resistance easier to evolve. This has implications for how we design drugs, choose doses, and think about viral evolution in the face of treatment. (1/n)
Congratulations to Wei Hao and our own postdoctoral Fish Hui Xian Poh for winning the best poster award at this year’s Singapore Scientific Conference!
Terribly behind the times with protein and gym bros. Not a big muscle country overall. They dress very well though! That’s something!
Weekend in Tokyo ahead of meeting up with colleagues.
Congratulations to our phd student Thomas for winning the best poster prize at the Pasteur Cambodia Immunology course!!
