🚨New Influenza Tool🚨 Interested in IAV mutations? Looking for markers of mammalian adaptation? Frustrated by converting between IAV numbering systems? The #Flu-MutationExplorer, a new tool from @cvrbioinfo.bsky.social and @royalvetcollege.bsky.social, is here to help: flu-gdb.cvr.gla.ac.uk (1/n)

Differences in constraint reflect changes in host-virus interactions, immune pressures, and protein functions that have evolved over the thousands of years since these viruses diverged. A really fun collaboration with new friends! Congrats to @williambakhache.bsky.social and @bealro.bsky.social 🧪 🦠

www.nature.com/articles/s41... Excited to have this collaboration from #QVEU and @rongellerlab.bsky.social lab out in the world! After publishing our own #DeepMutationalScanning studies on two related viruses, we asked what we learn from comparisons of such datasets. The answer is a lot!

Out today in @natecoevo.nature.com! 📝 www.nature.com/articles/s41... We compare the mutational tolerance of enteroviruses A & B across their full proteomes, mapping distinct host interaction strategies 🦠 and identifying mutation-resistant regions that could inform antiviral development 💊

Very happy to see this collaboration out! ⬇️

🌟 Join Institut Pasteur as a Junior Research Group Leader 🌟 Explore host-microbe interactions in key areas like vaccinology, infectious diseases, neuro-immunology, and maternal health. 📅 Deadline: Feb 28, 2025 (few weeks left!) Apply now ⬇️

Congratulations to @bealro.bsky.social for being awarded a #MCSA postdoctoral fellowship 🎉! We are looking forward to welcoming you to the team and going onto new scientific adventures together! #ForWomenInScience
