NEW: as we get more and more studies on vaccine efficacy, it becomes harder to distill their results into one clean summary. Here's my attempt at showing 22 results from 4 studies of 3 vaccines and 2 efficacy measures in 1 graphic, with @donatopmancini ft.com/content/5a24d39a-a702…

Very happy that Megan's paper has just been published in Current Biology. Well done to Megan and the whole team! This paper nicely shows how tissue-wide mechanics and cell division can be affected by a small cluster of oncogenic cells. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Manuscript accepted (more on this soon) and promoted to full professor! So grateful to our passionate @csunoncogene members; my mentors/collaborators; my administrators @csunorthridge/@CSUNBIO; and the support (ie, #ASCBMAC, @FulbrightPrgrm and @NIH) that have made this possible. – at Los Angeles, CA

So today was my last day in @humphrieslab at @wtccmr @FBMH_UoM Thanks to all past and present lab members (too many to mention here) for making it such a great experience. Special thanks to @MJ_Humphries for employing me for so long (since 1997!).

Data about Alpha (Kent) & Delta (India) variants since Feb 2021 from @PHE_uk Cases A 138,774 D 9427 A&E visit A 5.6% D 5.1% Hospital stay A 1.5% D 0.9% Death A 1.2% D 0.2% Unadjusted data without testing bias etc accounted 4 BUT reducing % for D vs A from A&E 2 death is 👍🤞
