Wow, congrats to Profs Phil Felgner, Lisa Wagar @lisa_wagar , Matt Marsden and the other @UCIMedSchool faculty on their $33 million (!!) grant from NIAID on pandemic preparedness - big things to come!

In case anyone forgot, I came in last place last season in fantasy football. Per Portnoy league bylaws, here is my mandated public acknowledgment: I’m terrible at fantasy football. Thanks commish @FindMeInTheLab for the reminder and always maintaining the integrity of league.

Interested in working on RNA processing and degradation? Come join us! My lab is recruiting at all levels!

I feel jaded by political speeches in general but…holy shit that was good

Brat summer is never ending! I’m proud to announce the release of my thesis project on BioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… In this paper, we unravel the mysterious roles of RickA and Sca2 in cell-to-cell spread and pathogensis during infection with R. parkeri.
