We used our new ivRIC method to map host proteins inside HIV-1 particles, finding 100+ proteins that the virus hijacks to boost infection.
This project has a long history, spanning from pre-COVID to now! Driven by Manuel Garcia-Moreno and led by @alf-castello.bsky.social

🧬 AI is transforming virology and pandemic preparedness
CVR researchers have mapped viral proteins across thousands of viruses, expanding structural knowledge 30 fold and uncovering new insights into diseases like hepatitis C, dengue and Zika

UofG in real life and anime! ✨
Have you seen Netflix’s new series ‘Love Through a Prism’? The art school is inspired by our very own University of Glasgow.
See the real campus locations alongside their animated versions. We think they captured our beautiful campus perfectly!
We’re hosting the @cvrinfo.bsky.social coffee morning 🍰🍩, celebrating the Lunar New Year 🧧🐎 #YearOfTheHorse
Happy Year of the Horse! 🧧
As a symbol of vitality and progress, the horse perfectly mirrors our ambitions as we reach the historic milestone of the UofG's 575th anniversary. 🐎
Our Principal, Professor Andy Schofield, wishes our community a very happy and prosperous Spring Festival.
We’re excited to announce our 9th Introduction to Viral #Bioinformatics course, starting 15 June 2026! 🧬

We are ready for @cvrinfo.bsky.social Xmas party🎄🎭
We are at our future planning meeting with Genomics team at main campus of University 🏰 @cvrbioinfo.bsky.social
Today we are showcasing our Lego based DNA sequencer at @cvrinfo.bsky.social summer party. ☀️⛱️
Had great fun at the Glasgow science Centre showing how DNA sequencing works using our Lego based GO-seq. Fantastic to see the imaginative new viruses the children sequenced too! @cvrinfo.bsky.social @cvrbioinfo.bsky.social @glasgowscience.bsky.social
Today we have been at the Glasgow Science Centre showcasing our new Lego based DNA sequencer: GO-Seq, to learn about respiratory viruses, their DNA and sequencing. @cvrinfo.bsky.social @glasgowscience.bsky.social
SFTSV is a deadly tick-borne virus. In this study, Petit et al. used a multi-omics approach to reveal antiviral responses in SFTSV-infected tick cells

Our viral #Bioinformatics course has come to an end 🎉 @cvrinfo.bsky.social
This year we welcomed 15 amazing participants from Europe, Asia, Africa & Oceania🌍
Huge thanks to everyone who joined — and to our instructors!
Had a delicious #VGB2025 course dinner at Ka Pao 🍽️😋
At another buffet-style social, @quangu.bsky.social welcomed everyone with a traditional Scottish folk song 🎤
As the collaborating centre of @woahglobal.bsky.social , we’re thrilled to launch our 8th annual course on viral bioinformatics & genomics! Welcome speech by @cvrinfo.bsky.social director @emcat1.bsky.social & head of Bioinformatics @davidlrobertson.bsky.social 🧬📊 #bioinformatics #genomics
OMG! I can finally share my joy to see my SFTSV work published in @natcomms.nature.com! This adventure started by the award of my MSCA grant and my move to the Kohl and @brennanlab.bsky.social at @cvrinfo.bsky.social. Let's chat about how we discovered novel tick anti-viral effectors!
Finally A BIG THANK YOU to all my co-authors, they made this long journey started in 2021 a bit smoother! Thanks to Scaturro lab, Kohl lab, @brennanlab.bsky.social, @quangu.bsky.social, and Dundee proteomics! And of course thanks to the Tick cell Biobank and Lesley for those tiny cells!
Thank you! Congrats!
