COVID19 WINNER Dance Your PhD 2021: Biochemical & Biophysical Studies of the COVID-19 N Protein
Biochemical & Biophysical Studies of the COVID-19 Nucleocapsid Protein with RNA
This video describes the PhD research of Heather Masson-Forsythe as a part of the Barbar Lab in the Biochemistry & Biophysics department of Oregon State University. The COVID-19 disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 has, within a period of only a year, infected more than 88 million people resulting in over 1.9 million deaths worldwide, as of January 2021, and the numbers are still growing. There is an urgent need to accelerate research into the mechanisms of virus infection, transmission and control. Even with vaccines becoming available, we face hurdles of viral mutation, difficulties in vaccine distribution, misinform...

    As an early participant in the contest (2009 - and I also used a hat as a PTM!) I've watched many entries over the years. This is a clear favorite - close to my heart as a fellow biochemist. I'm impressed by the way you use movement (and accessories - the scarf for the viral genome is genius!) to illustrate concepts, and by the quality of your movement and dancing. So many different styles too! Congratuations!

    I'm watching this and all I can think is how incredibly out of breath I get just shopping at Costco with a mask on. I had no idea someone could do so much physically like this, awesome, you certainly are an inspiration in more ways then one. Congratulations, I love your comment that working on the virus "has shown how quickly science can move when scientists communicate and collaborate openly and combine resources towards a common goal"

    Well done! You don't just explain your work, but visually interpret it with great talent, skill, and flair! Whatever the future holds for you, I hope you continue to use your skill as a science communicator. We need that now more than ever! All the best, and CONGRATULATIONS!!

    That's the best interpretative dance I've seen, both with the transition between dance forms and the techniques within each. I do enjoy the many DYPhD entries that created songs, however the terrific music selection and crystal-clear voiceover narration done here put the dance itself front and center. Fantastically well done! My two annual nerd party sessions are DYPhD and the Darwin Awards. I'm missing our ritual Gatherings of the Geeks. Soon, soon...
