Deep exploration of the virosphere for novel viruses in humans and other eukaryotes
Using high-performance computers, we analyze NGS data to discover unknown viruses in the human and animal virome that could influence disease risks. We investigate the virome as a factor for infections and diseases such as cancer and immunodeficiencies.

Pandemic preparedness: assessing spill-over risk of RNA viruses
The CoViPa consortium uses computer-assisted high-throughput virus discovery and evolutionary analyses to identify RNA viruses with high spillover risk and potential animal host reservoirs and to investigate new pathogenicity factors.
