Celebrating the three amazing women who will be leaving us in the near future. Congratulations Wei, Megan and Amanda!

Celebrating Dr. Megan Spurgeon’s official last day in the lab. Looking forward to all the new and exciting research that will be coming out of the @SpurgeonLab. Prost!

Better late than never, but Dr. Loke finally added her stamp to the Wartlab timeline plant. Congratulations Amanda!

@SpurgeonLab Congratulations Megan!

@Morgridge_Inst @McArdleLab @UWCarbone We’re very excited to follow up on this study to further identify mechanisms of bidirectional interplay between mucosal papillomavirus infections and the cervicovaginal microbiome.

Very excited to share our new research in collaboration with @lindskalan lab in @mbiojournal ! Key aspects of papillomavirus infection influence the host cervicovaginal microbiome in a preclinical murine papillomavirus (MmuPV1) infection model | mBio journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Presenting Dr. Amanda Loke! Amanda defended her thesis today and presented her research studying how the MCPyV viral proteins contribute to MCC development. Congrats!

New paper alert! This one took a long time and lots of collaboration with @WartlabUW and @thibeaultlab members. Proud to be building this body of work. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/la…

@SciVirusGuy @the_real_KVD @GoodrumVirusLab @purdylab @blacksciblog @ImmunobiologyUA You are amazing! Congratulations!

We are so excited for Dr. Taja Lozar, who is finishing her postdoc in the Lambert Lab. Dr. Lozar is heading back to Slovenia to begin a residency at the Insitute of Oncology in Ljubljana. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for Dr. Lozar!

I am excited that our latest work on MmuPV1 E6 is out. MmuPV1 E6 drives a number of pro-cancer phenotypes on its own including promoting proliferation. Check out the paper on mBio. @WartlabUW @kmunger @MadisonVirology @VaMdVetMed journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…
