Arbovirus seminars
@arbovirus.bsky.social
virtual seminars on arbovirus biology, by the community for the community (organised by Tem Morrison, @tulilab.bsky.social and @clive-mckimmie.bsky.social
Next virtual seminar is with Dr María Mora González López Ledesma, Fundación Instituto Leloir, Argentina. She’ll discuss: “Dissecting NS5-mediated immune evasion across the four dengue virus serotypes”, exploring how dengue NS5 shapes antiviral immunity. All welcome! Message us for the ZOOM link.
🦟 Really excited for our next seminar! @chantalvogels.bsky.social (Yale) on how mosquito & virus factors shape Wolbachia-mediated inhibition of dengue; a key question for biocontrol. Thurs 16 April, 4pm UK / 11am ET 📍 Zoom — DM or email us for the link, all welcome!
Join Prof Gong Cheng (Tsinghua University) for our International Arbovirus Biology Seminar, exploring the molecular basis of flavivirus infection in mosquitoes and determinants of vector competence. All welcome! Please help with a repost. #Arbovirus #Flavivirus #VectorBiology
Looks set to be a very useful and collaborative meeting on arboviruses and their vectors, later this year. 👇
Microbiology Society@microbiologysociety.org · 6mo agoAbstract submissions are now open for the 4th International Meeting on Arboviruses and their Vectors! Share your work on hosts & vectors, control/prevention, ecology & evolution. Talks & posters selected from abstracts. Submit now: https://microb.io/IMAV26abstracts
Prof. Claudia Nunes Duarte dos Santos (Fiocruz, Brazil) will present the discovery of Pirahy virus—a newly identified alphavirus from Brazilian mosquitoes with features suggesting emergence potential. Thursday 19th Feb by Zoom. All welcome! Just DM your email for the link.
Zoom seminar: Drawing on recent mechanistic and genetic studies, Prof Andres Merits' talk will highlight how #alphavirus #replication complex function intersects with innate #immune sensing and restriction, offering fresh perspectives on virus–host co-evolution and antiviral targeting. All welcome!
Henrik Salje (Cambridge) joins us to discuss how dengue risk shifts across the lifespan. His team uses multigenerational cohorts and antigenic cartography to reveal how population immunity is reshaping its ecology, and what this means for disease risk/vaccines. All welcome! Message us for Zoom link.
Our last seminar was so popular, we reached our Zoom capacity for attendees. Folks contacted us to say they couldn't join. Sorry! We plan to increase the capacity by a few hundred, so that this shouldn’t happen again. Thanks for your patience and your interest in these seminars!
Psyched to say that Mike Diamond is talking at our next seminar. THURSDAY 20th Nov. All welcome! World leading #virology not to be missed - just email us for a Zoom link. Please help us with a re-post to get the word out 👍
NEW SEMINAR - Thursday 16th October, all welcome! 🦟 How do mosquitoes fight infection at the gene level? Using precision nuclear run-on sequencing (PRO-seq), Pascal and team captured transcription as it happens in Ae aegypti, offering new insights into vector biology and host–pathogen interactions.
See you later today :-) (Thursday 18th).
Arbovirus seminars@arbovirus.bsky.social · 11mo agoSee you Thursday 18th for our first seminar of the series with the inspiring @priyashah.bsky.social from @ucdavis.bsky.social with her talk “Harder, better, faster, stronger: integrating virology and engineering to drive discovery”. All welcome! email us for the zoom link.

We’re back with another season of monthly seminars bringing together diverse and leading investigators worldwide to share cutting-edge arbovirus science. 🧬 Topics span molecular virology, virus–vector interactions, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and more. 📅 3rd Thursday each month 🕚 11 AM US ET Zoom
Final seminar before summer break is #Jonathan_Abraham from @harvardmed.bsky.social With several key recent discoveries on #alphavirus receptor interactions, this is one not to miss. THURSDAY 19th JUNE. Re-post to help spread the word. Email to get a #Zoom link. 🙂

It's finally time for some #bunyavirales and #tick borne viruses with Ben Brennan from @cvrinfo.bsky.social and his much anticipated talk, this THURSDAY 17th. All welcome! Please help us with a re-post. 🕷️🦠🧫
A new series of arbovirus talks on 🦠🦟🕷️💉 from key leading investigators, from across the field, and a diversity of career stages, and backgrounds. All welcome!
Hi everyone, what's up? We have our monthly seminar this week, with some super cool work on arbovirus entry receptors from leading researcher Jolanda Smit from @unigroningen.bsky.social All welcome - help spread the news with a re-post 🙂 NOTE THE EARLIER TIME for everyone outside the USA
Excited to announce our next speaker Dr William de Souza who will be presenting work on virus transmission dynamics of #emerging #arboviruses NEXT THURSDAY. Will be great to get some perspective from an up-and-coming investigator. PLEASE help with a repost for this community driven seminar series.
