Yesterday’s #MVIF 46 Pacific premiere was a real blast!
I had the pleasure of chairing the keynote session, featuring a fantastic talk and Q&A with Dr. Simon Roux (@simrouxvirus.bsky.social).
Don’t miss the Atlantic replay today at 8:30 a.m. (New York time)!

Here's our new paper on the circulation of West Nile virus lineage 1 in Italy, one of Europe's most WNV-affected countries. We definitely need stronger Europe-Africa surveillance! #WNV #PublicHealth

Our work on the Last Universal Common Ancestor is out!! 🧬💻
To improve data reproducibility and accessibility, I have created a GitHub repository that documents the steps you need to follow to reproduce all our timetree inference analyses. (1/n)

The nature of the last universal common ancestor and its impact on the early Earth system - Nature Ecology & Evolution
Integration of phylogenetics, comparative genomics and palaeobiological approaches suggests that the last universal common ancestor lived about 4.2 billion years ago and was a complex prokaryote-grade...

If you can do it, individual animals are the way to go for virus metagenomics: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Check out our latest preprint for all phage enthusiasts!
We present a novel virus discovery approach that leverages viral enrichment, enabling us to obtain a set of over 162,000 viral sequences. 🧬
