With our cooperation partners, we have a new review out, focussing on #tick #saliva! frontiersin.org/journals/immun…

#ITPD2026 was incredible. I want to thank all speakers, session chairs, and especially all participants. Without your support, we couldn't have created such an amazing program: itpd-tickborne.com/2026/ITPD%2020… We hope to see everyone at #ITPD2028! #ticks #borrelia #lyme

I am excited to announce the first confirmed speakers for the ITPD2026! The full list is available here: itpd-tickborne.com/2026/programme… Additionally, the abstract submission deadline has been extended to 8th December. #ticks #borrelia #borreliosis #lyme #disease #pathogens #research

With the last week of abstract submissions for the #ITPD2026, we are looking at an exciting programme already! If you haven't done so yet, you can still submit abstracts until the 1st of December: itpd-tickborne.com. #Ticks #Borrelia #Diseases #pathogens

A month is left before the #abstract submission #deadline for the #ITPD2026 itpd-tickborne.com/2026/index.php. The #symposium focuses on #ticks, tick-borne #pathogens and #disease, both in #clinical and #research settings. We are looking forward to welcoming everyone in #Vienna, #Austria!

@EltonRogozi Yes, the workshop is scheduled before the ITPD starts on Sunday at the same venue. You will find the reference to #Pragmatick on the conference website.

Is it connected with the COST Pragmatick meeting at the same date in Viena?

I am pleased to announce that registration and abstract submission for #ITPD2026 are now open at itpd-tickborne.com. The event will be held in #Vienna, #Austria, from 22nd to 25th March 2026. #Ticks #Diseases #Borreliosis

Together with our colleagues at the Institute of Specific Prophylaxis and Tropical Medicine. We published the following paper tickresearch.eu/news/molecular… #ticks #borrelia #rickettsia #bosnia and #herzegovina

Sind Sie interessiert an einem #Doktorat in #Mikrobiologie und #Molekularbiologie mit Schwerpunkt auf #Zeckenforschung? Wir haben eine freie Stelle: tickresearch.eu/news/open-posi…

With the end of the year close by, we want to wish everyone happy holidays and a fantastick new year. Thanks for the many great cooperations! #puns #adobe #firefly #ai #ticks #borrelia #research

@TickEurope @FWF_at Thank you!! It is indeed amazing news to end the year with :) Happy holiday season!

@GroupTick @FWF_at Congratulations Michiel!!Great way to end the year.

We are honoured and excited to announce that the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research of Austria (BMBWF) and the Austrian Science Fund (@FWF_at) have funded our project, “Alternative methods for #tick rearing and #infection #models”: doi.org/10.55776/PAT84…. #3Rs

We are excited to have a publication published, doi.org/10.1111/zph.13…, with our cooperation partners at Molecular #Parasitology at the @MedUni_Wien and @CLIMOSproject members Edwin Kniha and Ina Hoxha. Great #TeamWork! #ticks #kosovo #infectious #diseases

We are excited to announce that our new paper has been published! Optimising Transformation Efficiency in #Borrelia: Unravelling the Role of the Restriction-Modification System of Borrelia #afzelii and Borrelia #garinii mdpi.com/3007562 #mdpiijms via @IJMS_MDPI #ticks

Transforming #Borrelia #burgdorferi #bacteria into vibrant, green fluorescing microorganisms looks amazing! The perfect tool for #tick-#host-#pathogen interaction studies. 😎 #GeneticTransformation #Borreliosis #Infectious #Diseases 💚🔬

@MatsVanGestel1 @BStevensonLab Looking into possibilities, Spring 2025 should be feasible. At least the lab reconstructions should be finished by then, allowing for more participants.

@GroupTick @BStevensonLab That sounds very interesting!

#Summer in #Vienna, Where others go on holidays, we babysit these creepy crawlers. #Artificial #feeding of #ticks helps us to better understand the tick-#pathogen interactions and pathogen #transmission #dynamics. Have a great summer, but watch out for ticks! #borrelia #tbev

@BStevensonLab No problem at all! It wouldn't be a problem to organise a mini-course 😀

@GroupTick I think that I need to spend some time in Vienna to learn the fine points of feeding ticks on artificial membranes. Perhaps a mini-course this winter / next spring?
