Thank you to Dr. Klose for leading this team of exceptional scientists on the development of a vaccine to #beatCovid19. A prime example of how we will overcome this pandemic through our powers of collaboration. #FacultyKudos @UTSAresearch @uthresearch, @SWRI, @txbiomed @STCEID
The San Antonio Partnership for Precision Therapeutics (SAPPT) has awarded $200,000 for a collaborative study to develop a novel vaccine to combat COVID-19. Read how #UTSA is collaborating with other scientists here: bit.ly/2YsgsyK

During #StayHome, this might be a good time to catch up on past episodes of @STCEID’s #microTalk, “infectious conversations about #microbes” hosted by Dr. @realKarlKlose #UTSA #podcasts stceid.org – at San Antonio, TX

I challenged my class to come dressed with a microbio-themed costume: mad cow, Gram stain, fungus, virus, phage, Gram positive, ascaris, (back) Gram stain, retrovirus (my fave), feces w toxoplasma. Kudos to their creativity @STCEID @ASMicrobiology #tooinfectious

Tubeworm babies often grow up with help from 'friendly' bacteria. But how does this friendship take place? Sometimes, bacteria produce a tiny syringe that injects a single protein! Our work with @PilhoferLab #ZellerLab #NewmanLab now in @eLife

Monsters Inside Me is a great way to get people interested in (or terrified of) infectious diseases, and @riskindan (aka Batman) is one of the best #scicomm scientists i know, check this out.
Parasite Party in the USA!
@AnimalPlanet is doing a #MonstersInsideMe Marathon all day today (Aug 8; US only). Tune in!!!
(Do it for the eye-worms. They love this show!)

Micro challenge of the day:
Gram staining of cerebrospinal fluid 👇
Which organism is this?
CSF: 13 cells/mm3 (60% lymph, 30% neutrophils, 10% monocytes), elevated protein (0.85 g/L) and lactate (4 mmol/L), and a low CSF glucose (CSF:serum 21%).

We discovered that bacteria produce tiny syringe-like structures that inject a toxin into animal cells, opening the possibility for using them as novel drug delivery systems. Work by 4 gradstudents and 3 labs now in @CellReports @PilhoferLab #BeyhanLab cell.com/cell-reports/fullte…
