How fast do #viruses spread in the wild? @sdellicour @LemeyLab &co compare dispersal metrics from #phylogeographic analysis of viral #epidemic genomes with dispersal capacity of diverse viruses, revealing host movement-related discrepancies #PLOSBiology plos.io/3VoeOex

Please RT, the Spatial Epidemiology Lab (spell.ulb.be, @ULBRecherche) is hiring: I am looking for a post-doc to work on spatial models helping to target under-immunised communities during vaccination activities in the DRC: euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/2…

In this study we have analyzed almost 300k SARS-CoV-2 genomes, most of them generated by COVIGEN network which played a central role in strengthening genomic surveillance in Latin America and the Caribbean region. We then inferred the diffusion patterns of Gamma, Lambda and Mu.

Leishmania braziliensis populations in rainforests have low-prevalence single viral lineages, while more dispersed hybrid #parasites show increased #viral #prevalence, #diversity, and #spread. [EVBC involved: @LemeyLab] doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-4…

Our latest study, in which we used a phylogeographic approach to investigate the endemic signature of rabies virus (RABV) circulation in Cambodia, has just been published in Molecular Ecology: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Excited to see our paper now online science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…! By integrating a dataset of ~116,000 Omicron genomic sequences with epi and human mobility data, we investigate the invasion dynamics of Omicron BA.1 into England and its local dissemination at multiple spatial scales.

Our preprints on the origin of SARS-CoV-2... xitter.cf/MichaelWorobey/status/… have now been peer reviewed and published as a pair of Research Articles by @ScienceMagazine
We have just released two preprints on the origin of SARS-CoV-2: 1. "The Huanan market was the epicenter of SARS-CoV-2 emergence" zenodo.org/record/6299116#.Y…
