🚨 We found some cool viruses in Singapore!! 🚨 Over 18 months, we screened 17,070 🦟mosquitoes across 17 locations in Singapore, uncovering 🦠viruses that could shape future biocontrol strategies against dengue and other arboviruses! 🔗: doi.org/10.1099/jgv.0.… 🧵👇 (1/)

Been so busy that I almost forgot how beautiful and tranquil the UQ lakes are. Not a cloud in the sky either!

If you are interested in arboviruses, vaccines, antibodies, or collaboration, check out our website to learn more about what we do: peterslab-uq.github.io/Lab-Website/ We are always happy to chat 👋

Over the years, we have also generated TONS of antibodies. MozzyMabs™ is our antibody collection that we are making available to the research community. If you are looking for antibodies and do not see what you need, please get in touch! We can probably work something out.

The Jody Peters Lab @JodyPeters20 at @UQ_SCMB finally has a website 🎉 After more than a decade studying arboviruses and insect-specific viruses, we now have a place to share what we do and make it easier to connect with us. peterslab-uq.github.io/Lab-Website/ Thread 👇

Recently watched a video saying everyone hates western blots. Have they tried northern blots???

Amazing work showing the efficacy of Singapore’s Wolbachia program. Next: trying to convince the general public not to kill these very helpful mosquitoes upon release! nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Not sure I’ll ever get used to calling Lineage I ISFs “Fusivirus” or the mosquito-borne ones “Euflavivirus.” Please don't call me out at my next presentation!! Taxonomic expansion and reorganization of Flaviviridae pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41174177/?utm_… #phd #feedly
