I love TWiV and TWiM, so cool to see you on the video!
Vincent – can you try to make TWIV a little bit LESS interesting please? I’m trying to mark student exam papers while listening to TWIV, and I’m finding it hard to focus.
AMAZING episode. I loved Dr. Shenk’s talk. Everytime you get used to virology, you find someone who does something completely different. The effect of viruses on metabolism. AWESOME.
