Prof Deeann Reeder illustrates how natural and anthropogenic impacts cause energetic stress in mammals such as bats, mice, birds... and how his contributes to viral shedding, and consequently, spillovers @BatOneHealth #OneHealth

🚨🦇Please share widely 🦇🚨We have an exciting new funded PhD position going looking at the molecular adaptations underpinning immunity in bats. Interested in evolution, bioinformatics and/or viruses? Look no further -> findaphd.com/phds/project/mo…

Our new empirical study published in @Nature shows that rapid changes in bat ecology and behavior – driven by habitat loss and climate variability – drove the emergence of Hendra virus, a fatal pathogen in horses and humans.

Our work shows that once you understand the ecology of the systems, the intervention may actually be quite simple.
You can find the full study on the @Nature website here:
