The first paper/chapter of my PhD is finally out! We followed the root development in the #fern #Ceratopteris. This was made because we wanted a well-established fern species to do

Why is Pfizer allowed to call this treatment a “vaccine”? It’s a cellular immunotherapy. It interacts directly with a person’s genetic material at the intracellular level, unlike traditional vaccines, con’t.

More out of Iceland = game over. Big random n & genomic analysis so no guessing at direction. “This 40,000-person study found that children under 15 were about half as

I appreciate the @alsassociation for providing their perspective. After reading this statement, it is clear that they, and likely others in our community, have no idea what an expanded access

The evidence on the new SARS-CoV2 variant considered by NervTag was 1) growth rate from genomic data (increased growth rate); 2) studies of R-values and detection of the variant (suggested

First, some background. RNA viruses all evolve extremely rapidly, but some like influenza are able to accept mutations to their surface proteins in such a way that they can partially

could a non-segmented RNA virus rapidly evolve to evade a polyclonal immune response, rendering a vaccine ineffective? I think if you'd asked the average RNA virus researcher a year ago,

A quick thread on the new variant, pulling together information from news sources, twitter, genomic databases, and word from well-placed peers.https://twitter.com/nickeardleybbc/status/1340263541786501120 The new variant in the UK consists

With #COVID19 vaccine efficacy of ~95%, I'm looking forward to vaccine distribution in 2021 bringing the pandemic under control. However, I'm concerned that we'll see antigenic drift of SARS-CoV-2 and

Genomic sequencing of viruses from the #COVID19 pandemic can help reveal transmission patterns. Thanks to data sharing through @GISAID from groups all over the world, @nextstrain is now showing 1882

We had an opportunity early on. The virus was relatively stable,https://twitter.com/ct_bergstrom/status/1351061927020130312 The was still time to suppress the virus. But that required vigorous Government interventions learning from early mi

Both positive trends and concerning news happening on COVID in recent days. Great news in the 40% reduction in reported new cases since the peak 3 weeks ago. Lowest daily

Viruses don’t evolve to get around masks, distancing, or disruption of the virus particle by detergents or disinfectants. Mutation doesn’t defy the laws of physics. B.1.1.7 is transmitted the same
