We are excited to share our Nature Communications paper by postdoc Pan Pan Yang and The PhD Program in Virology at HMS grad student Wanyu wy on the structural binding mode of eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV) and Semliki forest virus (SFV) with receptor VLDLR rb.gy/2ryjcu

Oh academia, I long for the love we once shared. How young and naive we were...

Excited to share our most recent paper at Cell in which we used #CryoEM to study conformational dynamics as a determinant of drug selectivity and resistance for the herpes simplex virus DNA polymerase. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Sharing a piece on Triple E🦟. I am fascinated by this deadly virus so we do a lot of work on it in the lab. It's quite a nasty bug - for those who live in regions with activity, need to take appropriate precautions re: mosquitoes. Harvard Micro hms.harvard.edu/news/deadly-ea…

My brain is always looking for trimers in my micrographs

Nice sunrise from my bench this morning!

Confirmation that biology is the best!

I love being in science. Cafe employee I know well said she had pain and wanted some ibuprofen. I offered to run up to the lab and get some. But as I turned to leave another guy whips out a 50mL conical tube full of em and offers her some! I need to use lab ware more effectively

The crazy part is, if we found the mRNA vaccines to STILL be expressing spike years later that would be a huge win for the platform. A lot of research has gone into achieving durable expression to prolong humoral development. Years-long in vivo stability would be surprising tho

Thank you to everyone who contributed, including wy, Xiaoyi Fan, @jessica_oros_, Jesse Plung, Himanish Basu, Laurentia Vianney Tjang, Haley Varnum, @thecolinmann, Chiu Lab, Scott Weaver, and everyone else!

Absolutely thrilled to share paper on Nipah polymerase in close collaboration with Rachel Fearns at Boston University Boston University. 😃We previously posted on bioRxiv but this is the print form Cell. 🦇 Harvard Micro Gates Foundation cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

NIH indirect costs fund the backbone of research: maintaining labs, ensuring safety, and supporting admin work. These are essential for groundbreaking discoveries. Drastic cuts to NIH indirect rates are detrimental to academic biomedical research.

Dickson will be remembered among many TWiV listeners 🙏

Our study on the molecular basis of shifts in receptor recognition by western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) in the past century, led by Xiaoyi Fan and wy, is online! HMS Micro The PhD Program in Virology at HMS 🥳🥳🥳cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

Simultaneous polyclonal antibody sequencing and epitope mapping by cryoEM and mass spec: how far can we go? Check out the final version of our paper in eLife: elifesciences.org/articles/101322

TWiV podcast discussing our recent Cell paper on shifts in receptor use by an encephalitic arbovirus! Congrats wy Xiaoyi Fan Harvard Micro. Thank you MicrobeTV for covering! 🥳🐴🐦‍⬛🦟 microbe.tv/twiv/twiv-1219/

Excited to share a preview on "Decoding WEEV’s host adaptation" in Cell Host & Microbe featuring papers from @AbrahamLabHMS, msdiamondlab and Daved Fremont lab. 😀😀 cell.com/cell-host-micr…
