Abstract
Wildlife infection with SARS -CoV-2 remains mysterious and poorly studied. In this talk, Drs. Mubareka and Banerjee will discuss coronavirus-host interactions during infection in two wildlife species – white-tailed deer and bats. We will discuss how these animals mount an antiviral response that is distinct from their human counterpart. We hope to generate a wider discussion around virus infections in wildlife and One Health measures that can help us identify and characterize emerging zoonotic viruses.
Series This talk is part of the Departmental Seminar Programme, Department of Veterinary Medicine series.
