Excited to share our latest pre-print describing the beautiful work of PhD student @mikaelagbell on the insect-specific alphavirus, Yada Yada virus. Mikaela successfully brought the virus to “life” for the first time using RNA fragments from mosquitoes.

Excited to speak at the Virology Wakate Journal Club webinar! 🚀 I'll cover (i) mining viruses from accessible data and (ii) developing ML models to assess human infection risks from viral sequences. Looking forward to our discussion!

Check out this interesting review👇

[Théo Maire @TheoMaire01]

Are arboviruses manipulating mosquito behavior to enhance their own transmission?

With @felixhol and @LambrechtsLab, we reviewed studies comparing host-seeking or blood-feeding behaviors of arbovirus-infected vs non-infected mosquitos. @TrendsParasitol

Interested in transposable elements (#TEs) of Aedes aegypti #mosquitoes? @DaronJosquin produced a unified, manually curated TE library (available upon request). Analysis of TE organization and dynamics in the Ae. aegypti genome showcases the value of this new TE library.
