FluZooMark - Understanding influenza’s leap from animals to humans

What if we could see the next flu pandemic coming? In this episode of SMITSOMT, host Kirsten Lise Andersen talks with Professor Lars Erik Larsen (University of Copenhagen) and Richard Webby (St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital) about how flu viruses jump from animals to humans. They reveal how the FluZooMark project is hunting for warning signs in the lab, in the field, and across borders — to stop dangerous strains before they spread. The FluZooMark project is funded by The Novo Nordisk Foundation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
