Happy to see our work published at PLOS NTDs! We describe an Affimer that inhibits CCHFV NP function and its application in diagnostic assays (ELISA & LFA). Made possible thanks to Barr Lab, Tomlinsonlab@leeds, Avacta, EUROFINS INGENASA & Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (HONOURs-ITN) journals.plos.org/plosntds/artic…

The INgezim COVID assays use the SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein (N protein) as the antigen for the detection of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. A quick test developed at EUROFINS INGENASA youtube.com/watch?v=D6YfOS…


Three new virus families found to target human parasites! New HONOURs study out today in Nature Communications from @Kinsella_Cormac, Hoekepoek, @mlcotten13 and collaborators Amsterdam UMC. nature.com/articles/s4146…




In our PLOS Pathogens review we (ESRs from HONOURs-ITN) give an accessible overview of the research and development challenges commonly faced upon the emergence of a novel pathogen, using as example the current #SARSCoV2 outbreak response. Check it out!👉journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…



Belangrijke nieuwe inzichten in wat misloopt in het afweersysteem van mensen met ernstige COVID. Proficiat Els Wauters Joost Wauters @DiLa_lab @PierreVM0 Junbin Qian Neyts Virology Lab en vele anderen. Dank voor de fijne samenwerking. pers.uzleuven.be/leuvense-studi…

It has been for a while in the "limbo" but finally got published in Nature! It has been a great collaboration Dave @DewIvcp, Charaf Charaf Benarafa, and Martin Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut ... SARS-CoV-2 spike D614G change enhances replication and transmission nature.com

I feel honored, Thank you! and also a big thank you to all collaborators and funding agencies supporting our efforts! Swiss National Science Foundation HONOURs-ITN


While single-dose #COVID19 vaccines are preferred, two-dose may improve efficacy. Solforosi, Kuipers, Zahn et al. JNJInnovative Medicine show that immunogenicity of Ad26.COV2.S is improved in nonhuman primates after a second dose. bit.ly/3nAD7DJ #Infectiousdisease #hostdefense


The heroic work of @mitragltm, with support of our fantastic colleagues and collaborators, is finally out!! Demonstrating that there is a lot of potential to reduce and refine animal experimentation. wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/27… #3Rs #SARSCoV2 Universität Bern Three Rivers Climate CDC Swiss National Science Foundation HONOURs-ITN

⚠️WEAR MASK EVEN IF VACCINATED—Top World Health Organization (WHO) leader urges masks against #DeltaVariant even if 2-dose vaxxed. "Vaccine alone won't stop community transmission. People need to use masks consistently, be in ventilated spaces—even if you're vaccinated" #COVID19🧵 cnbc.com/2021/06/25/del…
