Wow - such an honor to have @profvrr and the TWiV crew discuss our recent @ScienceAdvances paper by @bestofneither this week! Great choice of art for this episode too. #rotavirus #NSP4 causes such great #calciumsignaling and calcium waves, I tattooed it on my arm!
TWiV notes the HHS communication pause, describes research showing that rotavirus viroporin activity is necessary for intracellular calcium signals that contribute to viral pathogenesis, & more! ๐บ bit.ly/3WJVF7l

How it started and how itโs going.
The Great Wave in homage to @Alexicon_CG discovering #rotavirus #calcium waves
Admittedly one of the strangest incentives system. But it makes for great tattoo art. That to @JeremyRedhawk for the beautiful work on my science sleeve.

An epic reactivation. Not enough Acyclovir in the world to stop that one! โค๏ธAmazing fun!

Itโs Dissertation Defense Day!!
Come see a fantastic seminar by @bestofneither today at 1pm CT.

Dr. @sash_ramani is part of our Pathways to Inclusive Enrichment (PIE) Committee! An assistant professor @bcmhouston's Department of Molecular #Virology and #Microbiology, her lab studies GI infections from #rotavirus and #norovirus.
Very admirable work!
A GFP doughnut? ๐ฉ
Nope! It is a #rotavirus viroplasm-associated membrane labeled with the GCaMP8s #calciumsignaling sensor. There are NSP4 #viroporins in them there membranes! And I think there are some small Ca2+ fluxes detected. โ at Texas Medical Center, Houston

Dr. Mary K Estes (@EstesLab_BCM) is the founder and emeritus director of the TMC DDC, and the co-director of our Gastrointestinal Experimental Model Systems (GEMS) Core. She is also a distinguished service professor @bcmhouston!
Thank you, Dr. Estes!
