@emma__harding @WhiteLabUNSW @UNSWBABS I use a combination of #bioinformatics and wet lab work to study endogenous viral elements in animals, with a focus on Australian marsupials like the #TasmanianDevil, #koala, #wallaby, #dunnart and #possum! @UNSW @UNSWScience #virology #AVS11

So thrilled to be the first guest on @ResBytesPodcast for the opportunity to chat about my research into viral fossils inside #DNA 🧬 If you haven't had a listen, there's three previous episodes introducing the amazing hosts and their fascinating research too! #virus #marsupial
In our next episode we chat with @emma__harding about her research on #paleovirology and the viral fossils hiding in marsupial genomes. Listen to find out how this research may improve #conservation efforts in the future 🐨🦘🦠 https://t.co/c470erGjj3

New paper out from our work on cane toad viruses 🐸, led by @AliceGRusso @WhiteLabUNSW Could viruses be contributing to the toad invasion success in Australia? Have they left some viruses behind in their native range? Read more here:

🐨 @emma__harding from @UNSWBABS examined the #DNA and #RNA of 13 Australian marsupial species and believes that viral fossils may be helping protect animals from infection. Could viral fossils in our own DNA being doing the same? https://t.co/ZXkO7EWB8o

The origins of COVID-19 are 12 months old and here's what we know about how it started
abc.net.au
November likely marks 12 months of life with the pandemic, but the most fundamental questions, like where it came from and who its first victim was, remain unanswered, writes Catherine Taylor.

Are you in these Sydney #coronavirus hotspots? @UNSW virologist Prof Peter White says while "we're not going as hard and as early as New Zealand but we are going pretty hard and we have some advantages in Australia”. #COVID19au #StayHomeAustralia
smh.com.au
The rate of coronavirus infection is running at much higher rates in parts of the north shore and eastern suburbs than elsewhere in Sydney, with young people adding to many new cases.
