Thrilled, and admittedly relieved, to see this major investment in Dutch #cryoEM become reality! π³π±π¬
Honoured to be a co-applicant on this national initiative and very excited for the opportunity to advance our work in cellular structural virology! π¦

Interested in our recent norovirus NS3 work? π
Join us to dig deeper!
I'm recruiting a PhD candidate to investigate NS3's role in viral replication and assembly using #cryoEM, #cryoET, and other complementary techniques.

Please share! π
Latest preprint from the lab, many years in the making!
By combining #cryoEM with #AlphaFold3 modelling, we propose that norovirus NS3 forms a transmembrane RNA translocase.
This could have big implications for our understanding of viral replication & assembly (π§΅)

Think coronavirus spikes have run out of surprises? Think again.
Our latest preprint dives into the highly unusual spikes of marine mammal coronaviruses.

This #cryoEM study was led by @viralfusion.bsky.social, with key contributions from an amazing team.
Iβm delighted that we could contribute the #cryoEM data to this incredible antiviral discovery project from the group of @neytsjohan.bsky.social π

A huge congrats to everyone involved! π
More picornavirus research from us! π
Latest #virology research from the lab! π
Using genetic approaches and live-cell imaging, we show that the viral 2A protease plays a critical role in subverting antiviral responses and establishing a favorable host environment to expedite enterovirus replication.

Iβm looking for a postdoc to join my team under a recently funded ERC Starting Grant.
If youβre passionate about structural #virology and have experience in #cryoEM SPA and/or #cryoET, get in touch!
Application deadline: January 19th.
Please share with your networks π

Amazing science at the Science for Life meeting in Utrecht. The talk by Julia Mahamid was incredible; it most definitely helped me to secure a poster prize too!
me too @danielhurdiss.bsky.social
Excited to share our first preprint of 2024! π

This study focuses on PDCoV, an emerging enteric pathogen.
We generated anti-spike mAbs & investigated their inhibitory mechanisms using structural & functional studies.
