Consortium News
In the early days of the pandemic, with commercial COVID tests in short supply, Rockefeller’s Robert B. Darnell developed an in-house assay to identify positive cases within the Rockefeller community. It turned out to be easier and safer to administer than the tests available at the time, and it has been used tens of thousands of times over the past nine months to identify and isolate infected
Educational Content
This series coordinated by the Heilbrunn Family Center for Research Nursing at the Rockefeller University CTSA is designed to give nurses and clinicians the knowledge and skills they need to participate in research, step by step. Each column will present the concepts that underpin evidence-based practice- from research design to data interpretation. The articles are accompanied by a podcast

Poster Sessions
While there is universal recognition of the importance of team science and team leadership in clinical and translational science, there is a remarkable dearth of valid and reliable outcome measures on team science leadership. As a result, we developed a semi-quantitative translational science-specific team leadership competency assessment tool and have begun pilot studies to validate it and use it

Lethal Infectious Diseases as Inborn Errors of Immunity: Toward a Synthesis of the Germ and Genetic Theories
It was first demonstrated in the late nineteenth century that human deaths from fever were typically due to infections. As the germ theory gained ground, it replaced the old, unproven theory that deaths from fever reflected a weak personal or even familial constitution. A new enigma emerged at the
SARS-CoV-2 induces human plasmacytoid pre-dendritic cell diversification via UNC93B and IRAK4
Several studies have analyzed antiviral immune pathways in late-stage severe COVID-19. However, the initial steps of SARS-CoV-2 antiviral immunity are poorly understood. Here, we have isolated primary SARS-CoV-2 viral strains, and studied their interaction with human plasmacytoid pre-dendritic cells
Herpes simplex encephalitis in a patient with a distinctive form of inherited IFNAR1 deficiency
Inborn errors of TLR3-dependent IFN-α/β- and IFN-λ-mediated immunity in the CNS can underlie herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encephalitis (HSE). The respective contributions of IFN-α/β and IFN-λ are unknown. We report a child homozygous for a genomic deletion of the entire coding sequence and part of
