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
A mentor’s love for their trainees can be measured in tracked changes

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

#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.

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.
Persistent childhood viruses are found in adult tissues, including internal organs, indicating the existence of a unique microbiome in our organs- the virome. doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkad199 #microbiome #virome @lpyori @DgPratas @MariToppinen @Espoonklaussi @SajantilaAntti @MaFePerdomoC
