Thrilled to share our state-of-the-art review on NK cell effector functions in antiviral defense with Ilija Brizić, now available in @FEBSjournal febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11….

We just finalized our study w. M.Hust and Pan-Hammarström lab on #Omicron #SARSCoV2 #RBD. Surprisingly, Omicron binding to ACE2 is not stronger than in the WT Wuhan virus. If anything it is weaker. Antibody binding is attenuated, however. Full paper @ tinyurl.com/yckt9s8b

Our paper on antibody recognition of the RBD domains of #SARSCoV2 #VoC, including #Omicron is now out in BMC Medicine. Many thanks to Michael Hust who got us tirelessly through the peer review. trebuchet.public.springernature.app/get_content/36…

A big thank you to all #CMV2022 Oral Presenters who are working hard to make this year's event a great success! Ilija Brizić Dr Karen Fowler Dr Sarah Jackson Mathew Clement @NLemmermann Dr. Mark R. Schleiss The Grey Lab Sean Lawler Dr Cristina Venturini Matilda Moström, Ph.D. Hanqi Li to name a few!

SARS-CoV-2 workshop organized by Ilija Brizić. Great talks by Prof. Fausto Baldanti and other colleges from the Center for Proteomics. The work was supported by Croatian Science Foundation

Day 1 of #CMV2022 Mon 28th March we look forward to welcoming brilliant Keynote Speakers. Don't miss Prof. Luca Cicin-Sain Luka Cicin-Sain (cicin-sainlab.bsky.social) give his talk on State of the art in adaptive immune responses to CMV. Sign up for the #CMV event of the year cmv2022.org/registration/

Asst Prof Ilija Brizić Ilija Brizić and Dr Emma Poole gave their Oral Presentations concentrating on Latency, and provided a great start to the session orals for #CMV2022.

Our new MS is on biorxiv.org/content/10.110…. We show that CMV is latent in many cell types in mice, but PDGFRa+ fibroblasts are the major site. More surprisingly and different from other herpesviruses, this is simultaneously a major site of viral lytic replication as well. 1/2

Now with peer review: Our paper on CMV latency in fibros is out in Nat. Comm. nature.com/articles/s4146… Special congrats to Kasia Sitnik, the first author on the study and my co-corresponding author. what does the paper say and why did it get published in Nat. Comm? 1/n

🚨Publication alert 🚨 We are delighted to announce our new manuscript in Nature Communications. The manuscript investigates the impact of infections early in life on NK cell functionality. Work was conducted by Carmen Rožmanić and led by Ilija Brizić. nature.com/articles/s4146…
