Microglial reactivity and neuroinflammation-driven changes in motivational behaviors are regulated by Orai1 calcium channels The Ca2+ channel Orai1 in microglia links systemic inflammation to depressive-like behaviors in mice.

A calcium channel named Orai1 present in immune cells called #microglia may explain how neuroinflammation can induce depressive-like behaviors, according to new experiments in mice published in #ScienceSignaling. https://scim.ag/4rmJSZQ

Giant viruses hijack their hosts’ protein factories Researchers identify a complex that hands mimivirus control of protein synthesis in infected amoebae

In a new report, researchers identify a clump of proteins in a giant virus that closely resembles part of its host’s proteinmaking machinery and lets the invader wrest control.

Gender differences in audience participation at infectious disease and microbiology conferences: a prospective observational study - PubMed Our findings highlight actionable levers to advance equity. Addressing participation gaps and raising awareness of gender disparities are essential to foster inclusive visibility, empower women, and strengthen scientific innovation.

A new study highlights a gender gap in audience participation at ID & microbiology conferences. Women speak up less often-yet participation rises when women moderate or ask the first question. Representation truly matters. Empowering women strengthens science.
