Special shout out to our BMA@ASV organizing team. We can’t wait to see where #BlackInMicro goes next!

#BlackInMicro does #ASV2024

We had a blast meeting everyone at #ASV2024. Thank you for showing up to support #BlackInMicro and congrats to everyone that presented!

My only concern about #ASV2024 is that I saw less than 1% of attendees wearing masks. Yes, vaccines work, but harm reduction helps even more. It’s an accessibility issue. #lovevirology

Can you believe it’s the last day of ASV?! Symposium IV: The Transformation of Virology Research and Global Health (8:30-11:00AM) will take place in Union Station Ballroom. #ASV2024

As I pack to leave Columbus, I’m reflecting on this week at #ASV2024, and I can honestly say this was the best conference I’ve ever attended. Thanks to the organizers for a fantastic job!

💃 🕺 #ASV2024

Congratulations to everyone who presented at #ASV2024! This week was filled with amazing science--hopefully you were inspired by other virologists and have some new ideas to apply to your own work! #LoveVirology

A friend took this picture of me during the Q&A portion of my talk today at #ASV2024, and it genuinely brought me to tears. I am so happy! That smile says “I love what I do and I’m enjoying this meeting so much!” This week has been a blast so far. I wish I could show this picture to younger me. 🥹
