As the monkeypox virus (MPX) outbreak continues, a lot of data emerging in real-time & being rapidly disseminated (as well as misinformation). I complied the unfolding scientific data (with direct links to papers and threads) on what we (don’t) know so far. #IDTwitter 🧵(1/n)

I'm with Dave and Elinne. I really like what I do, but it's not the only thing I like to do. I'll be happy to move on when the time comes, go do some other fun stuff, and let someone else take my place at work (if my place continues to exist).

Fantastic opportunity for a PhD with an outstanding mentor.

Today is my first day as chair of the Biology Department UMass Dartmouth . Wish me luck!
