Congratulations @SeverineVermei1! The first female rector of the @KULeuven!

💩🦠 Happy to present our paper on the engraftment of the enteric #virome in #UC patients receiving an #FMT-> temporal (~5 weeks) virome shift towards the healthy donor, primarily driven by #microviruses. @SeverineVermei1 @RaesLab pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40371968/

Check out our latest paper on how #wastewater can be used to track animal and #zoonotic #viruses in urban settings! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40318358/

🚨 New paper alert! 🚨 How did the #COVID_19 pandemic impact #rotavirus epidemiology in Belgium? Read all about it in our latest paper in @Eurosurveillanc : eurosurveillance.org/content/10.280… @9MustafaKaratas @ELwollants @vanranstmarc

🚨 #PhDPosition Opportunity Alert 🚨 Join the Matthijnssens-lab @KU_Leuven to explore the early-life #virome dynamics and their impact on immunity in infants from Ghana & Zambia! 🌍🧬 📅 Start: June 2025 🔗 kuleuven.be/personeel/jobs… #microbiome #bioinformatics #phage #NGS

🚨 Save the Date! 🚨 We're excited to announce #ViBioM2025, the International Virus Bioinformatics Meeting, happening 13–15 May 2025 in Lisbon, Portugal! 🦠💻 Stay tuned for further details: evbc.uni-jena.de/vibiom2025/ #VirusBioinformatics

Mark your calendars for next year Sep 12th in Ghent!

🪱🦠 Parasitaire rondwormen, die zowel mens als dier kunnen infecteren, dragen virussen met zich mee die op hun beurt interageren met het menselijk immuunsysteem. #kuleuven-viroloog @JMatthijnssens werkte mee aan de studie @NatureMicrobiol 👇 bit.ly/4dWBSbs

Evidence that #viruses of #nematodes interact with the human immune system, potentially influencing disease outcome. Great collaboration between @LSTMnews @KU_Leuven @UAntwerpen @DeconinckLander @SQuek_001 @AmberHadermann @colebunders2 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39232205/

Our third annual symposium is slowly getting closer! Abstracts due by August 1st! Come join us in Brussels 😎

It has taken us a while to deliver this ba”bee” about #viruses in Belgian #honeybees and their association with #winterloss! Great collaboration between #KULeuven & #UGent & @DirkDeGraag & #EPILOBEE @BakkerWD

Thanks #MaxBrol ! I wish I could have been there with you at #EASLcongress ! Say hi to the entire @MicrobPredict bunch! ❤️

It was an honor to host the #ViBioM2024 meeting in #Leuven @ the #RegaInsitute the last 3 days! Great science @ the interface of #Virology & #Bioinformatics! Fantastic to welcome old friends and make new ones! Hope to see you all again in Lisbon @ #ViBioM2025 🦠 🖥️
