Our latest study dedicated to the massive 2024-2025 chikungunya virus outbreak on Réunion island is now available as a preprint on medRxiv: doi.org/10.64898/202.... With more than 54,000 confirmed cases this is the second major chikungunya outbreak on the island, following the 1° one 20 yrs ago. 1/9
Unravelling the epidemiological and dispersal dynamics of the 2024-2025 chikungunya virus outbreak on Reunion islandReunion island just experienced a massive chikungunya virus outbreak in 2024-2025, with more than 54,000 confirmed cases. This is the second major chikungunya outbreak on the island, following the fir...doi.orgCheck out our new study entitled "Navigating sampling bias in discrete phylogeographic analysis: assessing the performance of an adjusted Bayes factor" and now published in Molecular Biology & Evolution: academic.oup.com/mbe/article/...

Ongoing at the @ulbruxelles.bsky.social: the 4th edition of the Health Geography and Spatial Epidemiology workshop organised by the homonymous FNRS contact group (www.healthgeographygroup.eu)
Our study on the development and comparative performance of novel landscape phylogeography approaches has now been published in @pnas.org: lnkd.in/d5yuYwk6. A study led at the @ulbruxelles.bsky.social and @kuleuvenuniversity.bsky.social, and mainly conducted with the support of the F.R.S.-FNRS

Comparative performance of novel viral landscape phylogeography approachesThe fast rate of evolution in RNA viruses implies that their evolutionary and ecological processes occur on the same time scale. Genome sequences of these pathogens can therefore contain information a...www.biorxiv.org
