At the yearly IHII/McLaughlin Colloquium at UTMB I was named a James W. McLaughlin Travel Awardee for my poster presentation, Development of a STAT2 knockout hamster model for wild-type Marburg virus, work under preparation for a manuscript in 2018.
None of this work would be possible without collaborators and coauthors.
