Think we should try this on the BK whole genome data that we (or I should say Céline) have.

Protecting biodiversity is as important as slowing down climate. This paper carries a positive message, for once.

So, *preliminary* molecular clock analyses indicate that the time of the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) of the US cattle flu clade was late December. TMRCA of that clade and the closest relatives in birds, mid-December. If single intro, likely between those rough dates.
If we continue like this, we will definitely cause the 6th mass extinction event.

The first step to fixing a problem is identifying it. Can you spot the lab hazard in today's picture? Check back later today to learn the answer! #ASMClinMicro #LabWeek #Lab4Life
So many problems, so little time. Can you spot the lab hazard in today's picture? Let us know what you think and check back later today to learn the answer! #ASMClinMicro #LabWeek #Lab4Life
Fantastic! Commensal bacteria acidify the mosquito gut, so ingested flavivirus virions are inacticated. Not clear from abstract, but I guess the env. glycoproteins prematurely change to the fusion conformation

Breaking News! March came in at 1.68°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline, making it the 10th consecutive month at an all time recorded high, and the 9th consecutive month breaking the Paris limit of 1.5°C.
#MicrobeofthMonth! Can you guess who I am? 1) I am one of the most contagious pathogens. 2) I can destroy immune memory from previous infections. 3) Vaccination is incredibly effective at combating me. Think you know? Comment below!
This is scary - no need to try and isolate mAb from patient samples any more, just go and design the one you want!
