If anyone is interested in #GiantViruses, large #Phages, or the ecological and evolutionary complexity of #viruses in general, you may wish to check out a review I wrote with @giant_virus

This was a lot of fun to write! And part of a special issue commemorating Ivanovsky's discovery!

Nice to have made the move over. I’m a pharmaceutical analytical chemist with a background in org/medchem. I run a team that focuses on novel DS control strategy development across all clinical phases.
I love reading about the wonderful new developments in science, pharma comings-and-goings, and (per my Canadian heritage) hockey. The old chemistry community we had on the bird site was fantastic, and looking forward to trying to rebuild that here.
I am part of the great #twittermigration and joined about a month ago. Been getting my head around tooting and boosting. So here is my intro (folllowed #fedtips). I like to talk about #science #chemistry #leadership and #diversity. I am an advocate for #womeninstem. I am not based in Scotland but it is close to my heart as somewhere I lived for some years. Plus I live nearby! #Cumbria. I am hoping more of my bird community will move across. So any tips on how to help them welcomed. Thanks!

Olfactory Viral Inflammation Associated With Accelerated Onset of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease onset may be accelerated by viruses that inflame and disrupt signals from the olfactory system to the hippocampus, a new study reports.

NPP-669 is a promising #Cidofovir #prodrug acting as #broad #spectrum #antiviral agent (#BSAA) against multiple DNA #viruses.
An excellent example on how #chemistry / #medicinalchemistry play a key role in the improvement of #drug #bioavalilability and clinical efficacy of #drug candidates.

#introduction: I am an Independent Fellow at #UniversityofNottingham running a research group focussed on using #bioinformatics, #microbiology, and #evolution to understand microbe-#microbe interactions in the human #microbiome (primarily in #cysticfibrosis).
What happens when you get more than one respiratory virus? My lab Yale studies this, and there are many open questions. This article discusses current research including the surprising phenomenon of interference among unrelated viruses. #COVID #flu #infectiousdisease https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/what-happens-when-you-catch-more-than-one-virus-70817

Hi everyone! I'm @basktastic on Twitter but am trying out my real name here. My #chembio #cellbio #lipidtime lab at Cornell develops tools for imaging and editing the lipidome, drawing on #bioorthogonal chemistry, #clickchemistry, #chemoproteomics, #optogenetics, #directedevolution, and more. https://baskin.wicmb.cornell.edu
Hi all, time for an #introduction
I am a bioinorganic (with a lot of bio) chemist by training and have moved to Wiley-VCH to become a professional editor right after my PhD.
Currently, I am the editor-in-chief of the journal ChemBioChem and am also supporting a few other journals within our #chemistry portfolio.
Besides science, I love sports, hiking/nature, and coffee
I'm seeing a lot of people with no profile, almost no bio, and no intro. Hoping this reaches some folks to help them get going.
*Bios: If you want people to follow you, tell them who you are. Use a real name, add a profile pic, put real info in your bio. You're not limited to one line here.
*Intros: Search for #Introduction and you'll see what others have done. Do your own, with hashtags showing your interests, and pin it so people going to your profile will see it.
