Very happy to have played a minor role in one of the two back to back papers in Science showing that Neuropilin-1 facilitates SARS-CoV-2 infectivity. They provide a molecular pathway to understand its neurotropism and a new therapeutic avenue. science.sciencemag.org/content/early/…
Another excellent paper out of @DrBenSegalNeuro with collaboration from @LabGiger . It was amazing watching this story grow from the beginning and I enjoyed having a small part in helping this come together. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Pre-print from our collaboration with our old colleagues in the @LabGiger! I didn’t work on this project directly, but I got to see a lot of the hard work that went into this publication and it’s progression in our joint lab meetings. Congrats, everyone!
