I have spent time with many Ukrainians who have found a home in Alaska after fleeing Russia’s brutal invasion. They have become part of our communities, sending their children to our schools, participating in the local workforce, and rebuilding their lives while the war continues to devastate their home country.View quoted post on X
My office has worked with many of these families as they navigate our immigration system, and the reality is that it is simply not safe for them to return to Ukraine. We should not force Ukrainians—whom we allowed into the U.S. and who are here legally and contributing to our communities—back into an active war zone.
These two pieces of legislation will provide them with the stability and protection they need to continue to live and work here until it is safe to return to their home.

🦠🧬 Gamma herpes viruses do all kinds of weird stuff… Re-enter: kaposin RNA.
Thrilled to share our most recent paper. Led by the amazing @marielkleer, we show that a viral RNA called kaposin drives nuclear speckle seeding beside the KSHV viral genome, an event which optimizes viral gene expression.View quoted post on X

Any #biosecurity SME should know the 🦠 ‘77 H1N1 influenza. A virus frozen in antigenic time that re-emerged to go global again in 1977. A lab leak from China or USSR? #BW gone wrong? A failed vaccine trial? A deep dive from leading scientists @enikohermann and @florian_krammer
My postdoc @enikohermann wrote a very nice review about the return of H1N1 in 1977. Here is a link if anybody is interested: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…View quoted post on X
