This project investigates the long-term evolution of viruses through the study of ancient viral remnants integrated into host genomes. By developing new methodologies, it aims to understand viral transmission dynamics and the role of gene exchange between viruses and hosts in shaping evolutionary processes.
Viruses are ubiquitous, obligate intracellular parasites that have had a pervasive influence on the evolutionary history of life.
Despite being extensively studied due to their role in disease, very little is known about their long-term evolution, since they do not form a geological fossil record.
The new field of paleovirology is the study of ancient viruses, which in the genomic age has been facilitated by discoveries of endogenous viral elements (EVEs). EVEs are the remnants of viruses that h…
