@hamarillo_ is presenting our new tool, Stellarscope at #Singlecellgenomics2022 Nice work Helena! The Nixon Lab


Kudos to @hamarillo_ on presenting her work on scRNSeq to assess HERVs together with the great team from The Nixon Lab

How do our cells silence the thousands of endogenous retroviruses that have colonized the human #genome? Nicholas Dopkins of The Nixon Lab has compiled a field guide describing known mechanisms: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Thanks HOPE Collaboratory Weill Cornell Infectious Diseases Division #transposon #bioinformatics

Check out our new review with The Nixon Lab on transposable elements and Alzheimer’s disease. We discuss new data that link dysregulated TE expression to AD pathogenesis. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Welcoming Dr. Fauci Weill Cornell Medicine with Dr. Ndhlovu, Dr. Nixon, and our ID Division Chief Dr. Gulick for the 2023 Ralph Nachman MD Distinguished Visiting Professor 🎉🎉 Ndhlovu Lab The Nixon Lab Weill Cornell Infectious Diseases Division #HIV #COVID


Super proud + super excited about Sabrina Leddy’s work on the role of TEs in elite control of HIV! In collab with The Nixon Lab and Manvendra Singh (Manu) - @manusingh.bsky.social. Sabrina presented to fellow graduate field members today and knocked it out of the park! #proudPI



🙌 Thank you, The Nixon Lab, matthew bendall - mlbendall.bsky.social, and @cellstoshell, for organizing such an incredible workshop!👏 It's inspiring to witness the power of interdisciplinary research at its best! Thanks to Weill Cornell Infectious Diseases Division & Weill Cornell Medicine for fostering such collaborations! Timothy Powell Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience


poster 118 - Our upcoming work of how TEs can make some human “Elite” - spontaneous controller of HIV, which goes long way if we think how our ancestors eventually repressed the retroviruses (Endogenous now) An odyssey from Cedric🧬➰🧬Feschotte and The Nixon Lab lab #EMBOMobileGenome


New research out in Nature Communications, funded by NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) & NIH, has found that #DNA sequences which originate from ancient viral infections contribute to susceptibility for psychiatric disorders like #schizophrenia, #bipolar disorder & #depression. 👉kcl.ac.uk/news/ancient-v…


Timothy Powell, The Nixon Lab and myself wrote a piece for the The Conversation to explain what our research on human endogenous retroviruses mean for Psychiatry (and also what it DOESN'T mean!) We hope you enjoy it! theconversation.com/depression-sch…

Some good news heading into a solemn weekend - earlier this week I received a letter signed by Robert Harrington informing me of my promotion to Associate Professor of Clinical #Pathology and Laboratory Medicine. @wcmcpathology 1/4
