Exciting discovery: we identified two novel species within the genus Enterovirus and demonstrated, for the first time, interspecies recombination events in the non-structural region of the genome. Huge congratulations to Corentin Aubé 🤩 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... @pasteur.fr

Tick-borne flaviviruses replicate in the cytoplasm. So why does their polymerase go to the nucleus? We tried to find out : www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Back from a little science marathon in North America : presented data on bat antiviral responses at a Paratus Science symposium and at the #BatID meeting in Chicago, had a blast at the amersocvirology.bsky.social meeting and finished with a seminar at the CRCHUM in Montréal. A stimulating trip!

Deadline to register to the @pasteur.fr one week course on EMERGING VIRUSES is July 20th @pasteuredu.bsky.social www.pasteur.fr/en/education...

Congratulations to Ségolène, who successfully defended her PhD (in the BEST DRESS EVER that was sewn by her grandma using 2 posters that she presented recently at international conferences) 👏 www.linkedin.com/in/s%C3%A9go...
