Anoctamin-2-specific T cells link Epstein-Barr virus to multiple sclerosis
Researchers identified anoctamin-2 (ANO2) as a frequent autoimmune target in multiple sclerosis, with T cell responses against ANO2 occurring in over half of patients. These ANO2-specific T cells share cross-reactivity and pathogenic features with T cell responses to EBNA1 from Epstein-Barr virus, and their activation worsens MS-like disease in mice.

Superb effort! Smashing those KPIs! Pay the STI! Now including a Federal Court judgement and damages about unlawful dismissal!
Only the finest management and HR talent can end up spending $1.1 million on lawyers (just their own!) for an issue with a temporary employee who had two days left on her contract. In awe of the skills.

As a nation we are safe in the knowledge that if this is the best the Liberal Party has to offer they will be in Opposition for some time yet.
Meantime, the two contenders for leading the right-wing coalition that got rubbished in the Australian election over the weekend look like they're an unapologetic couple protesting being ejected from _The Amazing Race_ for shouting various epithets.
