I am incredibly happy to share our preprint on the first 11 ancient Human betaherpesvirus 6A and 6B (HHV-6A &B) genomes! This was a work done in collaboration with many amazing colleagues! Special shout out to Lucy van Dorp, Dr Charlotte Houldcroft and Lehti Saag! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our new preprint is out 🚨 "2500 Years of Human Betaherpesvirus 6A and 6B Evolution Revealed by Ancient DNA". 🦴Featuring samples from the medieval graveyard of Sint-Truiden! 👏Great work by Meriam Guellil PhD and colleagues! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Two more human herpesviruses the ancient DNA club - HHV-6A and 6B. These viruses integrate into the telomeres (caps on the end of chromosomes) and a small % of people carry these viruses in EVERY nucleated cell in their body and can pass them on to their offspring.

Truly excited and grateful to recieve one European Research Council (ERC) StG. A carrear dream that comes true. Very soon I will be announcing positions at Universität Wien :)
