Thrilled to be at the #TropMed24, an incredible forum for exchanging the latest advances in tropical medicine, hygiene, and global health. Huge thanks to the organizers @ASTMH for bringing the community together!

It’s been a true pleasure hosting Prof. John Adams from @USFHealth, a leading figure in malaria research, at @Stockholm_Uni. He shared insights into his lab’s work, from host-parasite interactions to metabolic processes driving parasite survival. Very inspiring!!

We were pleased to host Prof. @nil_moretti from @unifesp 🇧🇷and @UMontreal 🇨🇦at @Stockholm_Uni last week, where he shared his exciting research on Leishmania and protein acetylation 🥼🔬 A great week with a great collaborator 🤝 Obrigado pela visita, Nilmar!

Last week, @JoAnkar23 paid tribute to @ssmfgrants for their funding of our exciting research program. It was a pleasure to share our recent successes! Congrats to all new SSMF grant awardees! 🥂

Happy to see this exciting study in press, big congrats to Qian Li and Sherwin Chan @karolinskainst . Thanks for an exciting collaboration, more to come! cell.com/iscience/fullt…

Exciting day at the SciLifeLab Spatial Summit and great to meet so many talented researchers in spatial biology! Best Poster Award went to our PhD student, Miren Urrutia 🥳 Thanks @SciLifeLab for hosting such a great event #SpatialBiology #SciLifeLab

Excited to see our malaria research featured on TV4 Nyheterna!🎥 Catch the interview to learn about our latest work on malaria infection in the liver and gametocyte biology. #Malaria#SpatialTranscriptomics tv4.se/artikel/4hYTPB…

Big thanks to Dr. Richard Green from @UW and @NateraGenetics for visiting us and sharing his insights on personalized medicine. We’re excited to follow his work and keep the conversation going!

Interesting new study from @SwissTPH by Prof. Till S. Voss and colleagues uncovers distinct roles of PfARK1-3 kinases in Plasmodium falciparum mitosis, with PfARK1/2 showing male-specific expression in late-stage gametocytes. Great read! 👉 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39235260/

@LlinasLab @billker_lab @amtalman @veupathdb Note: MD/FD abbreviations appear only in figures for simplicity; we consistently describe them as “putative male/female driver genes” in the text. MM1, MM2, FM1, FM2 (Male/Female Marker genes) were used as controls in sc-rt-qPCR analyses. No changes to previous gene names!

Nomenclature thread Part II: To make matters worse, the original MD1 @billker_lab @amtalman has a new abbreviation, MM2 @AnkarklevLab . What will we do without @veupathdb to keep track?

@LlinasLab @billker_lab @amtalman @veupathdb Thanks for raising this, @LlinasLab ! 🙌 Our MD/FD genes are indeed “putative driver genes”, hence the naming difference. We fully agree on the need for unified nomenclature! The loss of @veupathdb is a huge one for parasitology—it’s been an invaluable resource for all of us! 😔

Exciting new research from @SerreLab at @UMmedschool ! 🦟 Single-cell RNA-seq uncovers how polyclonal Plasmodium vivax infections impact parasite development and transmission. Must-read for #Malaria researchers! #Pvivax pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39223117/

Shoutout to our collaborators at @HenrikssonLab, @tanjaslotte, @scilifelab #Singlecellomics #Malaria #MalariaResearch #Sexualcellfate

Thrilled to share our latest research in @NatureComms. We performed single-cell analysis to computationally define new “driver genes” and study gene regulatory networks involved in male and female cell fate in Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes. nature.com/articles/s4146…

I am over the moon excited that the last first author paper from my PhD in the @AnkarklevLab is out in @NatureComms today! It was a wonderful team effort with @JVR_Lab, @EmmaRAndersson, @NoemiVanHul, @KC_DC_01 and @JoakimLundeberg! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Big thanks to our wonderful collaborators at the Lundeberg lab @SciLifeLab @KTHUniversity, the @JVR_Lab @NIH, the Scott Lab @KC_DC_01 @ugent, as well as @NoemiVanHul and @EmmaRAndersson at the @karolinksainst!

New insights into malaria liver stage biology! Excited to share our latest work in @NatureComms using #SpatialTranscriptomics to define host-pathogen interactions in Plasmodium-infected mouse livers! #MalariaResearch @Franziska_HiBr nature.com/articles/s4146…

It appears #NIAID will shutter the genome data base we all use daily. This strikes me as a significant mistake that may well endanger much of our global progress. @BSPparasitology @AS_Para @ASTMH @TrendsParasitol @AmSocParasit @parasitesrule @PiParasitology

My early Christmas present: happy to share our preprint of my PhD work in the @AnkarklevLab. We decipher host-pathogen interactions in #Plasmodium infected #liver in the true tissue context and with single cell resolution. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
