BatOneHealth Research Featured on Prominent Virology Podcast

A BatOneHealth study titled "Jamaican fruit bats' competence for Ebola but not Marburg virus is driven by intrinsic differences," published in Nature Communications, was featured on the March 30th edition of This Week in Virology (TWiV).

The research reveals key differences explaining why Jamaican fruit bats can host Ebola virus but resist the related Marburg virus, providing insights into viral spillover dynamics.

The feature on Dr. Vincent Racaniello's widely respected podcast underscores BatOneHealth's contributions to understanding bat-virus relationships within the One Health framework.
