Jurre Y Siegers, PhD

Excited and very happy to be awarded my first grant from the @CREID_Network Pilot Research Program. This grant will allow me to further develop my skills in the field of emerging diseases! (1/9)

Cambodia confirms 2nd human #H5N1 case of 2026 in a 45-year-old woman from Banteay Meanchey province. Patient hospitalized and under treatment. 2026: 2 cases, 0 deaths Since 2023: 36 cases, 15 deaths (CFR 41.7%) Since 2004: 92 cases, 52 deaths (CFR 56.5%) #AvianInfluenza

First human #H5N1 case of 2026 in #Cambodia: a 30-year-old man from Kampot province. Sequencing, virus isolation & animal investigations ongoing. Dead chicken at home before onset. Patient has since recovered. #AvianInfluenza #BirdFlu #Influenza #GlobalHealth #OneHealth

@MarionKoopmans Dank Marion!

Very interesting work on innovative surveillance from our frontrunners ( in terms of of innovation) in Cambodja rdcu.be/eY2V0

In our recent @NatureComms study, we compared traditional #poultry swabs with environmental #metagenomics, sampling #air, cage surfaces, carcass wash water, and drinking water in two Cambodian live bird markets. nature.com/articles/s4146…

@RealVision @RaoulGMI @BittelJulien $BTC: $210k Fed cuts = more liquidity + weaker dollar → rocket fuel. Govt reopening adds a money-market pulse. AI boom = deflationary productivity shock → faster easing + capital inflow to risk assets. Add accelerating crypto adoption → BTC enters its late-cycle banana zone.

In May 2025, The Telegraph joined our field mission on virus surveillance work in #Cambodia, where we used novel, non-invasive techniques like air sampling in live bird markets and bat caves, paired with field-deployable tools, to detect #emergingviruses at the source.

Cambodia has confirmed its 9th and 10th human cases of H5N1 bird flu this year. 6 of these cases occurred in June alone. Sadly, 6 people have died in 2025. #H5N1 #BirdFlu #Cambodia #Influenza

Good to get out in the field again for a few days. #fieldmission #bats

A great collaboration between virologist, entomologist and ecologists. @E_A_Karlsson

In a new study, using #metagenomics we discovered a novel Coltivirus, named Stricticimex coltivirus (SCCV), in a newly identified bat bug species in #Cambodia (Stricticimex phnomsampovensis) #OneHealth
