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 🐨🦘🦠 rss.com/podcasts/researchbyt…

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: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

🐨 @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? newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/sc…

Brilliant to see Australia doing so well on COVID19 testing. Thanks to all our scientists working around the clock @TheDohertyInst @unimelb @TheRMH and all our colleagues across the country!
Our latest work asks: How many tests for COVID-19 are being performed around the world? OurWorldInData.org/covid-tes… The chart compares the total number of tests performed per million people in a number of countries. Data for *many* more countries you find at the link above.
