Ask a Professional series - Bunyaviruses with Mark Stenglein
This is ‘Ask a professional’, the new format of the Viral Talk where the focus is on the science but most importantly the PERSON behind the science. From insect-borne viruses to SARS-CoV-2, we’re going to interview experts from the UK and the world on their research and then we’re going to talk about their career, future prospects and tips for younger generations of future scientists.
Join the host Federico in the first episode of the series interviewing Mark Stenglein, the Associate Professor of
Microbiology, Immunology and Pathology at Colorado State University. In this episode we’re going to cover Bunyaviruses (vector-borne viruses), non-canonical ways to academia and how to discover what we like to do.
For the sciency people:

Virus reassortment in general - https://doi.org/10.1371%2Fjournal.ppat.1004902
Why should we study viruses?
