We missed #cshlretro but had a big week: a paper from newly minted Dr. Carina Sandoval (!!!) unraveling the effects of HIV Vpr-induced DNA damage on transcription ... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
So excited to share our recent work! It has been an absolute pleasure collaborating with @marcoyannic and all authors! Please see Marco’s fantastic tweetorial 🧵

Thrilled to report that some months into my postdoc I'm officially living my virus hunting dream! Beyond excited to apply my amazing PhD training to merge the worlds of molecular virology and zoonosis to see where science takes me during this next phase of my career 🧪👨🔬
Celebrating our PI becoming 41 years young over the course of a week with a piñata filled with his favorite HIV accessory protein Vpr 🪅🎈🥳

If you review academic papers, remember that many of the authors are likely going to be students and postdocs, and the tone of your review sends a big message (good or bad) about the culture of your research community.
The Covarrubias lab at @MicrobioUcla is hiring! Looking for an SRA II/Lab manager (please see details in the ad below) to help explore the immunometabolism of the aging immune system. Please share if you know someone who is interested! Thank you! hr.mycareer.ucla.edu/applicants/jsp…
I am so happy for you 😭
Getting down to the endgame on the E. coli painting. Have to fill in all those tiny white dots in the nucleoid background, then lots of squiggles to finish up the LPS on the surface. Hope to finish it this afternoon!

Does anybody have advice for seeking a postdoc or any other post grad job? Especially during a pandemic I've been having zoom calls to chat about career options, but I'm not entirely sure about the best way to go about finding a postdoc/job @AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter
Timothy Ray Brown has died of leukemia. He was the first person in whom #HIV-1 infection was effectively eliminated by a medical treatment. The virus was undetectable, off of any medication, for 10 years. #RIP_TimothyRayBrown nbcpalmsprings.com/2020/09/29/pal…
Imagine telling a virologist to "stay in your lane" during a virus pandemic. That's Twitter.
