Our study on the development and comparative performance of novel landscape phylogeography approaches has now been published in @pnas.org: lnkd.in/d5yuYwk6. A study led at the @ulbruxelles.bsky.social and @kuleuvenuniversity.bsky.social, and mainly conducted with the support of the F.R.S.-FNRS

🦠 New paper out in Communications Medicine!

🌍🔬 We tracked the global spread and introductions of SARS-CoV-2 variants Alpha, Delta, and Omicron BA.1 into Spain.

Great collaboration with @lemeylab.bsky.social @guybaele.bsky.social @msuchard.bsky.social and others

International importance and spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants Alpha, Delta, and Omicron BA.1 into Spain
Communications Medicine - Gallego García et al. trace the entry and spread of SARS-CoV-2 Alpha, Delta, and Omicron BA.1 into Spain. The main route of entry is via France, the United Kingdom,...

Comparative phylogeography and recombination patterns of SARS CoV-1 and SARS CoV-2 related viruses. Both are derived from recent recombinations in their host bats, and then emerged in human hundreds of miles from their wild reservoirs.

The recency and geographical origins of the bat viruses ancestral to SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2
Recombination-aware evolutionary analyses of the entire genomes of SARS-CoV-1-like and SARS-CoV-2-like viruses indicate that SARS-CoV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 descend from bat coronaviruses that circulated as...

Check out our latest study "Comparative performance of novel viral landscape phylogeography approaches", which is now available as a preprint on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... @ulbruxelles.bsky.social @ulbrecherche.bsky.social - 1/8
Comparative performance of novel viral landscape phylogeography approaches
The fast rate of evolution in RNA viruses implies that their evolutionary and ecological processes occur on the same time scale. Genome sequences of these pathogens can therefore contain information a...
