Theo Murphy meeting organised by Dr Katy Brown, Dr Emma Harding and Professor Rachael Tarlinton.

This meeting will discuss current endogenous viral element (EVE) research. EVEs are viruses which have become part of their host’s genome through germline integration, and can represent extinct or current viruses. We will discuss endogenous retroviral, RNA viral and DNA viral elements, including their diversity, roles in host biology and impacts on human and veterinary disease.

There will be a poster session on Monday 8 February 2027. Registered attendees will be invited to submit a proposed poster title and abstract (up to 200 words). Acceptances may be made on a rolling basis so we recommend submitting as soon as possible in case the session becomes full. Submissions made within one month of the meeting may not be included in the programme booklet.
