We’re back with another season of monthly seminars bringing together diverse and leading investigators worldwide to share cutting-edge arbovirus science. 🧬 Topics span molecular virology, virus–vector interactions, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and more. 📅 3rd Thursday each month 🕚 11 AM US ET Zoom

🦟 New study on #Usutu and #WestNile #virus dynamics in the Netherlands out in @natcomms.nature.com! 7 years of collaborative studies in birds and mosquitoes by many in the #OneHealth PACT consortium, with Reina Sikkema & @marionkoopmans.bsky.social. → rdcu.be/eCf1f Some key findings: 1/4

We're in full swing at EEID 2025! Come check out our poster or better even, both posters, to chat West Nile and Usutu virus! @eeid2025.bsky.social

New postdoc positions with a number of exciting epidemic modelling projects opening in our Unit at @pasteur.fr in beautiful Paris. Deadline for applications: 26th June. research.pasteur.fr/en/job/postd...

🆕 Today, UKHSA and the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) have confirmed the first detection of West Nile virus in mosquitoes collected in the UK. There is currently no evidence of wider circulation in birds or mosquitoes, and the risk to the public remains very low. 📰🔗 www.gov.uk/government/n...

Please share with people interested in arbovirology. We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague to strengthen our team please share if you know of scientists interested in arbovirology, ready to make a move to Rotterdam! www.academictransfer.com/en/jobs/3508...

Consider applying to 2nd ESPIDAM summer program on infectious disease modelling, 23-27 June, in beautiful Stockholm! Covering many exciting topics (AI & ID, now/forecasting, networks, within-host models, data analysis...). So much to learn and great scientific discussions! www.math.su.se/espidam

Our recent PNAS about postdocs and their future careers: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

🔔New preprint highlighting a huge collaborative effort! We show the importance of silent reservoirs in Usutu virus transmission in NL. The work has featured in talks at Epidemics, SVEPM, and ModAH so you might have heard (but not read!) about it before 😉 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The Institut Pasteur is recruiting group leaders! Pasteur is an absolute incredible environment to start your lab. Surrounded by so many great scientists, in the beautiful city of Paris. Come eat 🥐 and conduct awesome science. Contact me if you want info ! research.pasteur.fr/en/call/call...

New preprint out showing variations over time in who contributed to SARS-CoV-2 infections in residents of long-term care facilities! 🗒️🗒️ www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

We're looking for a new book for the 2025 edition of our infectious disease epi book club! Really enjoyed working through 'statistical rethinking' this year 📖 Anyone on here with suggestions for stats/modelling books? #IDModelling #AcademicSky

Exciting PhD student opportunity to strengthen our arbovirus research group at Wageningen Bioveterinary Research. Please see the link for more information and to apply: www.wur.nl/nl/vacature/...
