Postdoc @BatLabFinland 🦇 @Luomus Interested in museomics genomics, phylogenetics, molecular evolution.

[Dr. Anne Duplouy @duplouy_anne]

Habitat degradation is a lead cause of biodiversity erosion around the globe. But how does it affect the microbial community associated with species leaving in degraded habitats? We investigate this point in our latest preprint. https://t.co/nWh0wQq3yt

Big @batsgoviral week! In @PNASNews and @ScienceAdvances we test how to prevent zoonotic #spillover by interrupting virus transmission in bat reservoirs. Short story: culls didn’t reduce spillover but altered rabies spatial spread; transmissible vaccines may be a solution. A 🧵.

Lepakoita vaivaava valkokuonosyndrooma on eräs aikamme tuhoisimmista eläintaudeista. @annasofia_b havaitsi väitöstutkimuksessaan, että Euroopassa yleinen lepakkolaji on tolerantti taudille. Suomessa tautia ei tavattu lepakoilla lainkaan. #väitös #biologia https://t.co/utFy2NVszV
