Check out my self-authored & illustrated lessons in parasitology, featuring notes from my field lab & updates on my independent research in natural sources of antiparasitic compounds! uniofnomi.wordpress.com #Parasitology #EducationForAll #ScienceResearch #AMR #DrugResistance
What better after Thanksgiving than Fernanda Novais speaking about leishmaniasis in Global Parasitology Seminar 12/2? In person & upenn.zoom.us/j/91485597704 @TrendsParasitol @WiParasitology @womeninmalaria @AmSocParasit @IGGPenn @PennPPA @BSPparasitology @SFParasitologie @pennvet
Reflecting on the necessity of toxic compounds in labwork and what alternatives might achieve the same result is not only environmentally friendly, but oftentimes budget friendly, too. #GreenerScience #ChemicalStewardship
Hazardous chemicals are taken for granted as being part of the lab environment. But they don't always have to be used. Here are three key facts about #GreenChemistry and its importance for lab sustainability.
Wonderful analogy for explaining how genes work, highlighting the similarities between music and science. (I mean, both have mathematical underpinnings, so it makes sense.) #math #music #science #renaissance
A friend asked me to explain DNA, RNA, and epigenetics. he said that others had tried before, but it didn’t click for him. I happen to play the piano, so I gave him a simple, albeit imperfect, analogy. After this analogy, he finally understood! Here’s the piano analogy. 🧵

Finessing the tick-tube method of tick control, targeting the white-footed mouse host. Tick-tubes provide acaricide-treated nesting material that mice can bring back to their nests, killing ticks at larval and nymph stages. #ticks #Lyme

One of the many dangers of #plastic. Even where plastic *is* regulated, plastic *additives* often are not. #GreenScience
A thread on #BlackPlastic. Black plastic refers to products made of plastic coloured black due to the addition of carbon black. The latter is produced by the partial combustion of petroleum products. It’s to make the plastic stiffer and less likely to degrade. 1/n
Great question. Borrelia. Bioinformatics, biochemistry, & immunology departments produce in silico, in vitro, & in vivo cellular models that coalesce. Teams separated by Borrelia host type - tick, avian, mammalian (including humans) - work on same research questions in parallel.
The cell is the fundamental unit of life. It is to biology what the hydrogen atom is to physics. And yet, more than 400 years after the microscope's invention, we still don't "fully" understand how even a single type of cell actually works. So let's build an E. coli Institute.…
Eradicating deadly and devastating diseases is a big task. To date, the world has completely eradicated only one human disease: smallpox. Healthcare workers around the world are on a mission to eliminate five more, four of them parasitic diseases: - Guinea Worm - Malaria - River…

Ancient Rome, despite their relatively advanced sanitation technologies and infrastructure, still suffered from parasite infections including whipworm, roundworm, and Entamoeba histolytica. #History #parasites
In celebration of World Toilet Day, our article collection features this riveting Roman read from Dr Piers D. Mitchell. Despite advancing sanitation infrastructure, parasites like whipworm and roundworm were widespread in the Roman World. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
Toxoplasma gondii is a common parasite found in cat feces that can cause birth defects and mortality. Yet, surveillance of this parasite is lacking in the U.S., which does not include Toxoplasma in prenatal screening. Why could this be? theconversation.com/toxoplasma-is-…
