Our new empirical study published in @Nature shows that rapid changes in bat ecology and behavior – driven by habitat loss and climate variability – drove the emergence of Hendra virus, a fatal pathogen in horses and humans. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… 🧵

The study, by @BatOneHealth authors Peggy Eby, @ali_bat, @rainamontana, @PeterPjh18, Andy Hoegh, and others, presents long-term data and models that predict spillovers. The data suggest an effective way to prevent the next pandemic is by protecting & restoring wildlife habitats

Ecology affects infection in wildlife, shedding into the environment, and spillover. Identifying aspects of ecology that initiate this cascade could improve zoonosis prevention & control but is challenging! We need long-term data on ecology, pathogen shedding, & spillover cases

The gastrointestinal (GIT) microbiome plays a large role in host health for many animals. Research on the role of the GIT microbiome in bat health and consequent infection dynamics is not well understood.

BatOneHealth researcher @MRuizAravena discusses the link between bat 🦇 and human 👩🏼‍⚕️ health in this informative and interesting webinar
How can we prevent the emergence of zoonotic viruses from bat populations? Keep bats healthy! Listen to our very own @MRuizAravena explain the connection between healthy bats and healthy people in the following webinar: youtube.com/watch?v=ytWERp5M… #diseaseecology #OneHealth #bats
