It saddens us to hear of the misdiagnosis of #Acanthamoeba which ultimately claimed the life of Chef @kumainn_uminom doms2cents.com/how-a-rare-dis… We are trying to develop more rapid diagnostics for this and other FLA diseases. One day we hope to have developed a drug to treat GAE.
The Rice Research Group's website is now live! Please check it out here; vet.purdue.edu/discovery/rice/. Also a great time to brand our research and have a lab logo! Thanks @J3N3R1C for the design of our logo. We are dedicated to protecting people from pFLA diseases. #AcademicTwitter
The fall lineup for the Global Parasitology Seminar Series. Many great early career speakers! @BSPparasitology @TrendsParasitol @ASTMH @PLOSBiology @AS_Para @AmSocParasit @MBLBoP @PiParasitology @ParaFrap @pennvet @DParasitologie @pennbgs @IGGPenn @PennMicro @PennBiology
The Rice Research Group are preparing for a slightly busy semester this fall screening >150,000 CNS penetrant molecules provided by @DrugDiscoveryPU. We will be using @promega CTG V2.0 and @INTEGRApipette 96-mini for the screen! Looking forward to seeing the hits to share soon.
Thanks for the stickers @PWB_Global! @pucvm

Today we received this note for our project screening 150K CNS penetrant drugs on pathogenic amoebae in collaboration with @DrugDiscoveryPU! 🥲 very thankful! @pucvm @PurdueUniv32656 #amoeba #drugdiscovery #raredisease #hope #Acanthamoeba #Naegleriafowleri #Balamuthia
Thrilled to see our work with @RiceAmoebaLab published today in Frontiers in Microbiology! I am excited to be working in a new area (pathogenic free-living amoeba drug discovery) and am looking forward to sharing our progress in the future! @NUTrypkiller doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.…
The Rice Research Group, and amazing collaborators, published their first, last authored and corresponding paper! A new milestone for the books! Thanks to everyone who contributed! Time to develop some CNS-permeable amoeba specific compounds! frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #amoeba
📌post-doc position available for the project: Development of salmon specific, immunology assays for automated analysis. You will be working at the academia-industry interface to resolve challenges in diagnostics jn aquaculture. Please retweet jobs.uws.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru…
Been a few years in the making. Glad to see this data come to fruition! Hope the submission goes smoothly.

I went home after my thesis defense and visa was held up due to 'security screening'. Had no idea when/if visa will come, waited a couple of months & told my future postdoc mentor, I'm not coming. This stress was a constant in my life for ~20 years until naturalization.
Coming from a country with a very restrictive passport, it has been (and will be) so mentally and economically stressing to apply for fellowships or just attending conferences abroad. Thankfully, I have had very supportive mentors, but I know that's not the case for everyone.
