The Maringer lab stands with trans people everywhere. Remember: the judges involved urged politicians/media not to weaponise this clarification of terminology in the #equalityact in a senseless culture war. We are all stronger together #lgbtq+ #transrights #trans www.stonewall.org.uk/news/stonewa...
How powerful the pandemic treaty will turn out to be depends on how seriously countries take it, says @nschwalbe.bsky.social.“This agreement definitely provides a recipe and all the ingredients for a world safer from pandemics,” she says. “Countries now need to make it happen.”

Really nice to see PhD student Matt Sherwood publish his work on Zika virus-host interactions with the goal of developing novel viral oncotherapies against paediatric brain cancers. Collaboration with Rob Ewing lab at @unisouthampton.bsky.social #zika #arbovirus #cancer #cancertherapy rdcu.be/ehXRF
To mark Autism Acceptance Month, here’s a delightful cat-themed comic from Tzipporah Johnston to explain the double empathy problem autistic and non-autistic people face when communicating with each other. #autism #autistic #neurodivergentinstem #neurodivergent doorinthewall.co.uk/wp-content/u...
My mum works in a hospital and always impressed upon us that “you only get one chance at a good death”. The work in this article is so important for understanding how our demographics affect whether we get to die at home or in hospital.
Super excited about attending ASV for the first time this year.
An increasing number of African countries are strengthening their health product regulatory systems to combat the widespread circulation of fake and substandard medicines, particularly antibiotics and antimalarials.

Interesting that although we now have a close relative for mpox, the ancestry of smallpox (variola virus) is still unknown. The closest viruses are found in camels and gerbils (taterapox), but they ain't that close.
Please share with people interested in arbovirology. We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague to strengthen our team please share if you know of scientists interested in arbovirology, ready to make a move to Rotterdam! www.academictransfer.com/en/jobs/3508...
