Description

Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are the cause of some of the greatest burdens to human and animal health worldwide. Two of these viruses Tembusu (TMUV) and Wesselsbron (WSLV) viruses cause serious diseases to livestock, they are zoonotic, and they have similar transmission cycles to West Nile Virus. The PhD will assess the following hypothesis "Are UK and invasive mosquitos' species competent vectors for TMUV and WSLV re-emerging viruses?".
