Great to collaborate with @chantalvogels.bsky.social, Afeez Sodeinde and their team on this comprehensive work looking at dengue virus & Wolbachia interactions, making the case for considering DENV genetic diversity when implementing Wolbachia-based control interventions - key findings below! 🦠🦟
📢New preprint on the impact of dengue virus genetic diversity on inhibition by Wolbachia 🦟🦠🧬
Project led by Afeez Sodeinde, @emiliefinch.bsky.social, and @keli5734.bsky.social! ✨
Key findings in thread below 👇
