I am happy to share our latest paper entitled “Blastocrithidia nonstop mitochondrial genome and its expression are remarkably insulated from nuclear codon reassignment” which just appeared in NAR (DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkae168


I am happy to share our latest paper entitled “In silico prediction of the metabolism of Blastocrithidia nonstop, a trypanosomatid with non-canonical genetic code.” which just appeared in BMC-Genomics. : bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Cyanotriazole compounds can rapidly cure trypanosome infections in mice, a new study finds. The results bring the possibility of eradication and effective management of many neglected tropical diseases. 📄: scim.ag/3aZ #SciencePerspective: scim.ag/3aY

Sad news - Professor Gloria Rudenko passed away last week. She worked on antigenic variation and immune evasion in African Trypanosomes. She will be missed. rememberancebook.net/book/professor…

When a dream comes true. The high-resolution structure of Trypanosoma brucei ATP synthase dimer. This study would not have been possible without the excellent collaboration with @A_Amunts @BiologyCentre nature.com/articles/s4146… rdcu.be/cXjcx

Congratulations to @MariaPaolaCosti and co-applicants on the approval of the new COST Action CA21111 “One Health drugs against parasitic vector borne diseases in Europe and beyond” (OneHealthdrugs), to develop and promote collaborative work on treatments of humans and animals.


Czech, Russian and Belgian researchers have revealed in a new model trypanosomatid Novymonas esmeraldas, a uniquely complex cooperation between the host and its endosymbiont. researchgate.net/publication/35…


Proudly announce that our latest paper is now available on @ResearchGate: researchgate.net/publication/35…
