#Introduction

Hello Mastodon! This is the official account for the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID).

We are a non-profit org focused on #InfectiousDisease and Clinical Microbiology for professionals in those areas.

We organise research grants, educational events and our annual congress #ECCMID2023 (www.eccmid.org) along with much more.

You can learn all about us on our website (www.escmid.org) and we hope to see you around!

Animal models for long Covid, review at #PlosPathogens

"We review SARS-CoV-2 infection and disease manifestations in mice, Syrian hamsters, ferrets, and nonhuman primates (NHPs). Specifically, the virology, pathology, immune responses, and multiorgan involvement are summarized. These models are rationally examined for their use in understanding the complexities of the multiorgan involvement during Long COVID and the potential for their use in screening therapeutics such as anti-inflammatory drugs, which are currently used for treating other diseases. The aim of this review is to highlight Long COVID preclinical animal models that could be used for Long COVID research and to screen for pharmacological interventions."

#Introduction

I'm an assistant #Professor at the University of York. I lead a team researching how steroid hormones drive breast cancer tumour growth.

I've shifted fields a lot over my career, originally I was an organic chemist, and then during my #PhD I used those skills to look at bacteria that make antibiotics.

With the growth of 'omics technologies, I got into #genomics and #proteomics which now underpins our cancer research work.

We are looking for one or two more post-docs to work on the role of inner membrane association in Vibrio cholerae transcription regulation or communication between the host intestine and intestinal bacteria. Your pic here?😁 https://paulawatnicklab.com for contact info

I'm new to Mastodon! Still getting used to this new platform. I'm Dan Nomura, a Professor of Chemical Biology at UC Berkeley! My lab uses chemical biology approaches to tackle "undruggable" proteins and to develop new therapeutic modalities to develop next-generation disease therapies!

#IDMastodon #Kinases key regulators of the #innateimmunity.The discovery of novel small molecule modulators is critical to new Tx for #antiviral and #cancer #Immunotherapy. The Transcreener ADP2 Kinase Assay can help accelerate these efforts due to its robust flexibility for #DrugDiscovery

#introduction

Hi there! My name is Cedric and I'm a synthetic medicinal chemist. I design and develop new molecules hoping to find something useful to treat neglected tropical diseases such as #Malaria, #Leishmaniasis and #Chagas disease.

Currently I am a #MedicinalChemistry trainer at the Wellcome Centre for Anti-Infectives Research at the University of Dundee, Scotland. My interests are #chemistry, #DrugDesign, #compchem and some #python on the side.
