Our paper "Cat–wildlife interactions and zoonotic disease risk: a call for more and better community science data" was selected as the Editor's choice in the last issue of Mammal Review onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ma… #FreeRangingCats #bats #zoonoses #COVID19 #AvianInflueza

Advances in understanding bat infection dynamics across biological scales | ow.ly/wxsi50QQ4Rm #ProcB

Nice with a study combining telemetry approaches and AIV epidemiology - and in the nicest of birds, the noddys.

Interesting paper by @MattBetts11 et al in @Ecol_Evol which makes us think about why we should (or should not) state multiple alternative hypotheses in ecology and evolution. Comes w/ an analysis of trends in litterature & useful definitions. doi.org/10.1002/ece3.7… 🗞️#320-2023

We are recruiting at @CBGPMontpellier, in the @EcolEvolZoonose research group. It is a permanent position for a virologist (research engineer). He/She will work on detecting and characterizing rodent-borne viruses (immune and molecular approaches). en.ird.fr/node/8480

We looked for coronavirus in noddies and terns in four islands of the Western Indian Ocean. None of the 1513 samples tested positive. Couldn't find a descent journal to publish this negative result, but the (very) short report is available here: doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…

"To date, the number of publications that describe protein attachment to coronavirus numbers in the 10s of 1000s, this is important for vaccine development. Conversely, there has only been 1 publication about the circulation and ecology of the virus." @rainamontana @BatOneHealth

A must read for anyone interested in drivers for disease emergence. I particularly like this graphic, showing that transition areas (ecotones) are associated with increased disease emergence risk. thelancet.com/action/showPdf…

Tatiana Barbar participera à la finale nationale #MT180🇫🇷, le 8 juin prochain, à Rennes.

MORE evidence for importance of ongoing surveillance of bat borne viruses in areas where deforestation is impacting bat ecology patterns &why there needs to be global pressure for approved vaccines&therapies for MARV.How much more is needed? virological.org/t/first-emerge…
