Smiling members of the Sato lab, and guests, bend, squat, and pose with two-finger “peace signs” and “thumbs up” in front of a white board wall. One person holds a copy of the journal Cell.
Huge gratitude to @systemsvirology.bsky.social for organizing #CSHApandemic and bringing us all together, and for including @cp-cell.bsky.social in the program. And also for hosting the coolest lab party in Tokyo! 😎🥼🎉

And good to see Jonathan Pekar presenting our work on the recency and phylogeography of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 related viruses!
We've made some exciting additions to this work since our preprint that we hope will be published soon.
In the meantime: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Was great to see Zhengli Shi's presentation (albeit recorded) on years of sarbecovirus sampling in bats found across China! 🦇
Really hope that this data will be made publicly available soon!

@angierasmussen.bsky.social presented a newsworthy deep dive on the Huanan market environmental sample transcriptomic data. Showing that signals of CoV-like infection was present for a number of the animals in the market.

Yusuke Kosugi showed his ongoing work on determining which spike substitutions are responsible for host tropism broadness across the sarbecoviruses! 🦇🦠
Stay tuned for this one!

@jarelelgin.bsky.social gave a fantastic talk on his work about the recombination even which led to MERS-CoV's DPP4-using RBD. 🦇🐫
Read the paper here: virologyj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
and more work on this area coming soon! 👀

I got the chance to present a fun, ongoing project on the evolution of the seasonal human CoV NL63.
If you're working on this - sometime forgotten - little virus do give me a shout! trying to expand this project as much as we can!

A busy number of weeks have ended with the #CSHApandemic conference held in the Awaji island 🏝️!
Was amazing to see so many CoV experts in one place and discuss exciting science!
Here's a little 🧵on findings presented at the conference from our lab and others to look out for in the new year!

Beyond honored to present on the pandemic potential of MERS and MERS-related viruses through recombination at this prestigious conference! Standing among giants in virology was truly inspiring (and excitedly anxious)! Thankful for the insightful discussions! #CSHApandemic

Wonderful meeting was over.
The coronavirologists got together, and I heard many fascinating talks. #CSHApandemic
I'm glad I can ask questions and talk directly to authors who developed amazing virus research that I was impressed by when I read their papers in the past.
Please visit Japan again🇯🇵

"A number of participants at #CSHApandemic were good enough to apologise today and yesterday for the behaviour of Greg Towers and @angierasmussen.bsky.social on tuesday night. Much appreciated. Some younger virologists told me it made them question their career choice." - Jonathan Latham

Obvious issue with Angela Rasmussen's #CSHApandemic presentation about infected animals at Huanan Seafood Market is Bloom’s Figure 3 shows a positive correlation between raccoon dog DNA and reads for bamboo rat CoV, canine CoVs, and rabbit CoV—but a negative correlation with SARS2.

Last day at #CSHApandemic ! I am biased 😉, but two beautiful talks today by @jollylab.bsky.social and Greg Towers...and so many other fascinating talks! Lots to think about!

Contrast Ralph Baric’s talk #CSHApandemic on emerging virus threats with the Global Virome Project in 2017. Now accidental and/or intentional release isn't on the radar? This field continues to demonstrate it's too conflicted to regulate itself or investigate COVID-19 origins.
