#WorldHepatitisDay at #IAS2026 in Rio. #HIV and viral hepatitis share many challenges, from prevention to equitable access to care. While #HBV and #HCV rightly receive global attention, let's not forget #HEV, the leading cause of acute viral hepatitis worldwide. We still have much to learn.

Getting ready for single cell sequencing! Yesterday we had training on the Chromium GEM-X device from @10xgenomics.bsky.social that we recently set up in our lab. Excited to apply this fascinating technology in our future projects and collabs on hepatitis E virus infection! #HEV #Scicomm #TRACiR

As our group ist growing and a fresh homepage is on the way, we figured we need nice portraits and group photos 😎 So today @tremark.bsky.social from the @ruhr-uni-bochum.de media team visited our lab and we had a full blown photo shooting putting us into the spotlight 📸 #TRACiR #smile #science
