#SayHello to our Postdoc, Miaomiao Shi. Currently she works on the mechanisms whereby Protein A mediates B cell activation but was also integral in our vaccine 💉 development. Outside of lab, Miaomiao is super into rock climbing and bouldering 🧗‍♀️ because she's just the coolest!

So grateful that our very own Derek Eli and Dominique Missiakas could be a part of this amazing @Nature paper. Great job to @TaurVil and Jennifer Klunk on the amazing work 👏🏽

Most recent work from the lab just out @Nature. By combining ancient DNA work, population genomics, and in vitro infections we show that the Black Death shaped the evolution of immune genes. Kuddos to co-first authors @TaurVil and Jennifer Klunk. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Growing up in India, the 'use it until completely broken' was deeply ingrained in our minds. Sadly, this culture is eroding fast in India as well, as incomes rise. I still find it very hard to adapt to disposable culture. Need laws against unreasonable disposable items.

Don't be like @JGI and open other people's data without their permission. But be a champion of open science by opening your data and do it without expectations. Use open data when you find it without shame. Cite it's creators, and treat it as yours. merenlab.org/2019/02/24/fan…

History says, don't hope On this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime The longed-for tidal wave Of justice can rise up, And hope and history rhyme.
