🦠 How does mucus influence the transmission of viruses? As part of the #ONEMUC project, our coordinator @christian-7.bsky.social is researching the role of mucus as a biological barrier in the transmission of zoonotic influenza A viruses.
We gathered in the heart of Ghent for our 1st Progress Meeting – set in a beautiful monastery. 🇧🇪 🦠
Yesterday was dedicated to project updates; today is all about in-depth scientific discussions and shaping the next steps. 💬💡
Thank you to the team at @viblifesciences.bsky.social for hosting us!
COMBINE follows a 3-step approach to investigate the virus-host cell interaction and cellular uptake of #MarburgVirus (MARV). 🔎🔬💉

🌍 It’s #OneHealth Day! Did you know human, animal & environmental health are deeply interconnected?
An insightful historical example is the origin story of #MarburgVirus. The first outbreak in 1967 showed how zoonotic diseases can cross borders fast.
