1/ 🚀 Pathoplexus now supports Bundibugyo virus (BDBV), a species of Ebolavirus. BDBV has been associated with past outbreaks of Ebola in the DR Congo and Uganda, & a case has been reported today during response to the current Ebola outbreak. pathoplexus.org/ebola-bdbv #ebola #bdbv #ebolaoutbreak

With Eugene Koonin, we wrote a rather comprehensive review on the origin, evolution and organization of the #virosphere. We describe all 10 viral realms and the logic behind them, and so much more. Check it out! comptes-rendus.academie-sciences.fr/biologies/ar...

🩺📊 'Dengue Virus Evolution: From Emergence to a Global Health Crisis'—edited by Claudia Nunes Duarte dos Santos and Marta Giovanetti—brings together leading experts to examine its evolution, pathogenesis, and strategies for prevention. bit.ly/4jEosUY #virology #VirEvol
Last week we wrapped up the first edition of the Virus evolution and ecology course under the umbrella of the brand new Master in Microbiome Science offered @univie.ac.at. We learned about viruses, their evolution, and their ecological impact across different ecosystems. 1/2 #VirEvol
Delighted to share this paper out via Virus Evolution: academic.oup.com/ve/advance-a... in which we develop and assess a quantitative method to infer phage and bacterial mutations driving changes in infection phenotypes arising in coevolutionary dynamics. a 🧵 about people (and some science)
Back to the lab after a week of really great research on #virus #evolution in Roscoff! The VEE team was represented by Laura, @danischwarz.bsky.social, @dominikluecking.bsky.social, and myself. (Im)patiently waiting for the next edition of this great meeting! #VirEvol #CJM2024_virEvol
There's Wuhan mosquito virus 6 (WuMV-6) news from our lab! We got some sequences from Lithuanian mosquitoes & it looks like WuMV-6 here is related to the divergent lineage from Sweden which is interesting in the context of some hypotheses we have about this virus. 1/2 #VirEvol #EvolSky #MicroSky
It’s been 6 months since the words “phage” and “virulence” entered my daily vocabulary. The question is: why do phages carry virulence factors (VFs)? Excited to share some modelling ideas during the poster session of SMEEB 2024 in L’Aquila later this month! #phage #microbiome #VirEvol
