Tomorrow's vector technology! Cheers to the IU-Bloomington team and the GIVAX team for their amazing progress in using Rotavirus Platform Technology to create combination vaccines again rotavirus and other enteric pathogens.

Totally agree - although I try not to do the re-write myself and instead leave comments/suggestions...guessing @ananya716 might say she could do without the "grimace face" comment

There is still a lot of work to do on this one, but it is starting to look like a #paramyxovirus (#measles, #mumps, #nipah, #hendra, #rsv) 😃 #Blender3D #MolecularNodes

Terrific article by Asha Philip and Sannoong Hu demonstrating the use of rotavirus as a vector system for expressing glycosylated proteins. Recombinant Rotavirus Expressing the Glycosylated S1 Protein of SARS-CoV-2 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

AAAND we have lift off: the #calicivirus2023 with the lecture in honor of norovirus discoverer Al Kapikian , given by Kim Green: “ a totally biased selection”

Where are we now? Noroviruses and caliciviruses everywhere! #calicivirus2023

#calicivirus2023 John Patton on combined rotavirus norovirus vaccine, from GIVAX. Based in re engineered rotavirus genomes to express some norovirus proteins. Concept: could this induce dual antibody responses. Choice of background strain of course is crucial.

Cindy E. Hmelo-Silver, a Distinguished Professor in the @IUSchoolofEd, and Curtis M. Lively, a Distinguished Professor in the @IUCollege Department of Biology, have been elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. news.iu.edu/live/news/2822…

Congratulations, Dr. Dai! A truly outstanding graduate student who has been studying the battle between rotavirus and the innate immune system. mBio 2022 Dec 20;13(6):e0299522

@sding88 Very sorry to hear about your Mom. She raised a terrific son.

I always keep my tweets to just science and lab. My mom died yesterday at the age of 59 after a long fought battle with cancer among other things. Not seeking condolences; more of a reminder to all of us to cherish and spend time with the family and friends who are still around.

@florian_krammer Love it!

You - yes YOU - are chock-full of DNA viruses, mostly silently biding their time, waiting to infect your children/grandchildren. Yes, it sounds like something from a horror movie, but it's also something that humans have experienced for thousands to millions of years.

@HyserLab @IUBiology It was terrific to have you visit us Joe. My gang is still excited about all the great science you shared with is. Such a great system. And, everyone loved having your parents visit us too. Wonderful!

Thank you @RotavirusL and @IUBiology for the opportunity to visit, hear about your amazing research and tell you about our ongoing work to understand virus #calciumsignaling. It has been fantastic trip on a beautiful campus!
