Finnish data on the neutralization titers of the sera of BNT162b2-vaccinated individuals: Effective neutralization of the SARS-CoV-2 variant with the D614G substitution and the B.1.1.7 variant, whereas the neutralization of the B.1.351 variant is five-fold reduced.

Vaccinia and Autophagy? Thought you’d never ask! New pre-print led by Melanie Krause together with Janos Kriston-Vizi Artur Yakimovich Moona Huttunen shows that VACV subverts xenophagy by taking out several autophagy receptors. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Can't think of better way to start the weekend than reading Melanie Krause 's pre-print about Vaccinia virus and autophagy! 👏👏👏 Goes also to Jason Mercer Artur Yakimovich Janos Kriston-Vizi!

Nothing quite like the Friday evening “paper accepted” email 😀 Time for a drink 🎉

Today I feel accepted. Accepted for publication! 🎉🎉

Hot off the press!! Poxviruses steal MVBs for wrapping and egress. We even ventured into THP-1 macrophages! 😜 life-science-alliance.org/content/4/8/e2… Led by Moona Huttunen in collabo w/@SamolejJ Robbie Evans Ian White Artur Yakimovich Janos Kriston-Vizi Dr Eva Frickel Juan Martin-Serrano and Wesley Sundquist

Yes, the incubation time was long.. 😉 But it's out now and I couldn't be prouder or happier! 🎉 Thank you Jason Mercer for all the support! 🤗 Thanks: @SamolejJ Ian White Artur Yakimovich Janos Kriston-Vizi Robbie Evans Dr Eva Frickel 💚, Juan Martin-Serrano and Wesley Sundquist! doi.org/10.26508/lsa.2…

Poxviruses get ESCRTed from infected cells. Moona Huttunen and Jason Mercer from IMIBirmingham show how vaccinia virus hijacks cellular MVB formation to exit host cells. By Mercer, Huttunen & colleagues life-science-alliance.org/content/4/8/e2…

Kaksi Pfizerin–Biontechin #rokote​annosta saaneilla todettiin erittäin hyvä vasta-ainetaso SARS-CoV-2-virusta vastaan. Immuunivaste oli yhtä voimakas viruksen alfamuunnosta vastaan, mutta jossain määrin heikentynyt beetamuunnosta vastaan. #COVIDVaccination utu.fi/fi/ajankohtais…

.Turun yliopisto - University of Turku ja University of Helsinki tutkijat selvittivät yhteistyössä @TyksVsshp, HUS Helsingin yliopistollinen sairaala ja @THLresearch kanssa Suomessa joulukuussa aloitettujen koronarokotusten aikaansaamaa immuunisuojaa. ▶️helsinki.fi/fi/uutiset/ter…

Only 5 manuscripts from each author!? Sounds too good to be true... 🤔 What do you think?

Näin se vain on, poxvirus-mietintämyssy on kaivettava esille. 🤓🧐 Ei se kauaa onneksi ehtinyt pölyttymään. #monkeypox #apinarokko Tuoreimmat uutiset yle.fi/uutiset/3-1204… life-science-alliance.org/content/4/8/e2…

Tältä se siis tuntuu kun vuosikymmenen paino tipahtaa hartioilta! Sitten kun voimani ehtyvät pinnalla pysymistaisteluun akateemisessa maailmassa, voin rauhallisin mielin antaa yritysmaailman viedä mukanaan. iltalehti.fi/tyoelama/a/bd3…

Tiedä sitten, jaksaako uusia matoja koukkuun enää viritellä.. 🪱 Mutta kysynpähän kuitenkin. 🧐 Mitä rahoitusmahdollisuuksia Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland lisäksi löytyy solubiologi-virologi-mikroskopistille? Mielellään sellainen, johon omat palkkakulutkin saisi laittaa. 😉 Vanhakin olen. 👵😆

We need to update our academic group Web pages. What platforms have you used for this? Something easy to use would be great! 🤓

For the next 7 days or so "Hello Barcelona and #VirusesAndCells Gordon Research Conferences !"🔬 I already spotted XUser and Bryan C Mounce from the poster list! Instant smile on my face! See you all soon! 😊 SallaMMattola and I are always ready for a chat and new friends! 🥳

I made a promise to myself: "You have a presentation tomorrow, so surely you'll go to bed early." ....well... that didn't happen.. I'm l shocked! 😜 #VirusesAndCells Gordon Research Conferences

At today's Special Edition #VirtualPub, Moona Huttunen shared the approach she will use to understand the role of extracellular vesicles in Pox viruses including Monkey Pox in her ISIDORe funded project taking place at Finnish Advanced Microscopy Node soon. Very promising 🤩!
