- Feeling very inspired today after meeting Professor and Nobel laureate, Dr. Emmanuelle Charpentier today. #LoveScience #CRISPR
- Zoonosis is an ongoing process and we only of a very small fraction of these viruses and transmission pathways. Lots to be learnt. What an inspiring talk by @eddieholmes.bsky.social at the World Society for Virology meeting.
- Fantastic talk by @systemsvirology.bsky.social at the World Society for Virology! #LoveVirology
- Fantastic! 👏🏾
- Looking forward to connecting with new and old colleagues, and presenting our most recent work at the World Society for Virology meeting. Fabulous crowd and brilliant talks. Kick off by Dr. Andrea Marzi! #LoveVirology Postdoctoral fellow Dr. Hurtado will be presenting her work too. #LZCI
- Proud of PhD students, Rita and Arkadeb for winning top poster prizes at the Life & Health sciences research expo. We are proud of you! 🦇 #LZCI @abhuinya.bsky.social
- 🚨 NEW PUBLICATION. The beginning of a new series of wildlife zoonotic virus genotype to phenotype collaboration. A fantastic group of researchers and a true interdisciplinary effort. 🦇#LZCI www.nature.com/articles/s44...

- Thank you so much!
- Excellent lab in a beautiful location. Very interesting research topic. Bonus - super PI who will be invested in your wholesome growth as a scientist! Apply! #GraduateStudent #GraduateOpportunity
- It was wonderful to share the lab’s work with colleagues at McMaster University and their Immunology Research Center. Thanks, Amy and Josh, and lovely to meet colleagues at my Alma mater. #LZCI
- Today is an incredibly special day. To be hounoured by students and the India Students Association at the University of Saskatchewan is humbling to say the least. It is an honour to represent the community and to hopefully inspire the next generation of scientists. Thank you, Parichay 2025.
- 🚨In this study, we generated primary lung organoids and used them to derive monolayers and air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures to compare the replication kinetics of two highly pathogenic coronaviruses, SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV. #LZCI #LIBI www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Come join us at the 2025 Bat ID meeting. 👇🏾
- Proud of Dr. Kaushal Baid for winning multiple speaker awards during our annual research day.
- Cell death (understudied in bats) is a phenomenal process that plays a role in controlling the spread of virus infection, among many other important roles. Read the latest on this here. @keshu-vrimmch.bsky.social #LZCI journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
