Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

Very proud of Eleanor Marshall , today she handed me a copy of her thesis. She will defend her thesis on Thursday February 13th! It was a pleasure supervising her! #ProudPI

Look at this statistic. That is why virologists continue to raise attention for avian influenza

Viro3D: a comprehensive database of virus protein structure predictions 1. The Viro3D database represents a groundbreaking expansion in viral protein structural data, predicting structures for 85,000 proteins across 4,400 viruses. This is a 30-fold increase compared to

H5N1 BirdFlu is GOING VIRAL. H5N1 killed approximately 24000 Peruvian and Chilean sea lions, in just a few months in 2024 (24000 animals). More than 70% of southern elephant seal pups were wiped out. There are daily mass die offs in birds in the americas. Cats are dying.

🚨 New preprint alert 🚨 We searched for the presence of coronaviruses in >200 bat individuals across Spain 🦠🦇🇪🇸. We recovered 6 complete coronavirus genomes, including 3 novel species. One of them could use bat and human ACE2 for entry. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Another bat virus identified, related to MERS coronavirus, with binding to human cells through the receptor also employed by SARS and SARS CoV 2. cell.com/cell/abstract/… Trying to predict risk of spillover is a field of research that is challenging but aims to potentially ...

Huge cancer breakthrough! mRNA vaccine (similar to COVID vaccine tech) shows stunning results against pancreatic cancer! 75% of responsive patients STILL cancer-free at 3 yr, normally 80% recur. Could revolutionize treatment for one of deadliest cancers! Funded in part by NIH

The upper respiratory tract tropism of MERS-CoV may vary between individuals due to differences in DPP4 expression, providing an explanation for the unpredictable transmission pattern of MERS-CoV PNASNews pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Thank you international society for antiviral research for this recognition, of a career that I built based on my uniqueness and leveraging my success and influence to knock down walls to bring wider perspectives and out of the box ideas to light.

AutoAbs neutralizing IFN-Is exacerbate severe viral diseases. Groen et al. Ben Hale University of Zurich identify IFN-I regions commonly targeted by these autoAbs and develop a proof-of-concept decoy strategy to alleviate pathogenic effects. hubs.la/Q03cMHp90

My PhD work is finally published!🤓🥳We explored MCMV dissemination, immune mechanisms controlling productive & latent infection, and cellular sites of MCMV latency in the brain—using a mouse model of cHCMV infection. Super excited to share this!😬#CMV jneuroinflammation.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

In a new study, using #metagenomics we discovered a novel Coltivirus, named Stricticimex coltivirus (SCCV), in a newly identified bat bug species in #Cambodia (Stricticimex phnomsampovensis) #OneHealth
