@JordanDoesFlu @florian_krammer @IcahnMountSinai Congrats Jordan!! 🥳

I'm very pleased to announce I've been promoted to assistant professor 🤓 Massive thanks to @florian_krammer for giving me the opportunity, and to my fellow lab members and everyone in the department that make working at @IcahnMountSinai so special 🦠🥼

I am so tired of people claiming life is a meritocracy. Surely those who espouse the notion that the rich deserve to be rich don't actually believe what they're saying. Surely they know that redistribution of wealth does not "punish" success but fosters the breadth of success.

@cn_vazquez @kelliejurado Congrats Kellie!! 🤩

That's my PI!! So proud of you @SesmaLab !!! Incredible keynote talk highlighting the lab's work over the years 🦠🧬 #ASV2023

Looking forward to delivering the Keynote address at #ASV2023 tomorrow in Athens, GA! Excited to see many friends and colleagues and meeting new ones. ⁦@AmerSocVirol⁩ #LoveVirology ⁦@IcahnMountSinai⁩

You would think that after so many similar conversation RE entry exams for higher education (e.g SAT, GRE), people would understand that the same reasons why these exams are a bad idea (detailed below) should especially apply to children applying to HIGH SCHOOL 🙄

Second day was the awesome Thesis defense of @JessicaPintad11 (@rosamdelangel as outside examiner) Jessy did an amazing job presenting her recently published work on tetravalent DENV vaccines. Thanks to the fantastic committee! I am very proud of you, Jessy🥰
