Have you heard it is (was) snake day? #WorldSnakeDay The issue of snakebite education is critical as 81K - 138K people die every year from venoming throughout the world. Photo: Cameroonian Atheris squamigera Photo by Callum Mair (Iris Film Ltd)

⚠️🐍 You want to know something interesting about venoms? Here you can find our #SciComm article with animal toxins in focus! Together with @LuddeckeTim, we were asked about Facts You Didn’t Know by @SofiQuaglia for @DiscoverMag. (My second interview 🎉) discovermagazine.com/planet-…

8 Facts You Didn’t Know About Venom and Toxic Animals

Venomous species use their poison for defense and to hunt. And humans might be adapting it for our own medical purposes.

Excited to share a preprint I have been working on! Regulation of toxin expression in elapids in comparison to viperids! Both highly venomous snakes, but regulate the expression of their toxin genes differently- biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Distinct regulatory networks control toxin gene expression in elapid and viperid snakes

Venom systems are ideal models to study genetic regulatory mechanisms that underpin evolutionary novelty. Snake venom glands are thought to share a common origin, but there are major distinctions...
