Happy to share our new manuscript out today in @PLOSPathogens Great effort by Enkai Li, a new postdoc in the lab, the paper demonstrates that rotavirus NSP1 mediates viral dissemination to extra-intestinal organs and is responsible for biliary obstruction.

Super thrilled to receive the prestigious Michelson Prize @wustlmicro @michelsonmedrf @immuomePro We aim to engineer rotavirus vectors to immunize against enterotoxigenic E. coli. Both are devastating causes of infantile diarrhea and an effective dual vaccine will close this gap!
We're thrilled to announce the recipients of the #MichelsonPrizes: Next Generation Grants together with @ImmunomePro. Congratulations to Dr. Siyuan Ding, Dr. Claire Otero & Dr. Dennis Schaefer-Babajew! Their award-winning proposals offer new solutions to vaccine design+delivery. @sding88 @WUSTL @ClaireEOtero @WeillCornell @Doctor_DSB @NussenzweigL @RockefellerUniv @ImmunomePro @MichelsonMedRD

This provides a new mode of antiviral action of calpain inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 in addition to inhibiting Mpro and endosomal cathepsins. A great collaboration with @seblabk and @CiorbaGI @WUSM_MolMicro

Pleasure to have WashU undergrad Alex work in the lab this summer as a Vagelos fellow, mentored by an MSTP student Avan. Alex had her first experience presenting a poster at the summer research symposium. Well done!
