Characterising the longer-term impacts of highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreaks prior to 2020 on wild bird populations
Since 2020, there has been a global escalation of the impacts of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) on wild bird species. However, the population-level consequences of this disease remain poorly...

The H5N1 avian influenza virus continues to circulate widely across U.S. dairy cattle herds, commercial poultry flocks, & wildlife. Last year RFK Jr cancelled a contract w/Moderna to create mRNA vaccines against pathogenic flu viruses including H5N1 (bird flu).😢

Impeach RFK Jr., we can do better.
Bird flu outbreak raises pandemic concerns as virus spreads across US farms
Health experts warn that the simultaneous circulation of bird flu and seasonal influenza could increase the risk of a new virus capable of spreading between humans.

Great to see this new paper on rewriting the wheat karyotype by targeting centromeric retrotransposons, an approach that we employed 6 years ago in the human pathogenic fungus, Cryptococcus neoformans.

There's more and more evidence that T-cell metabolism is strongly implied in inflammation. This work from Mayo Clinic for instance links methyl pyruvate to altered histone acetylation and shows that GSK3β inhibition eases colitis in mice. 🧪
Metabolic reprogramming of pathogenic CD4+ T helper cells attenuates inflammatory bowel disease in mice
The kinase GSK3β drives the metabolism supporting the inflammatory function of pathogenic TH1 cells.

“This detection does not pose a risk to consumer health or affect the safety of the commercial milk supply,” the USDA said. “The U.S. FDA is confident pasteurization is effective at inactivating HPAI [highly pathogenic avian influenza] virus, and the commercial, pasteurized milk supply is safe.”
