    Results emphasize the complex of #dissemination and #reassortment events with the movement of migratory #birds, and the importance of continual monitoring of AIVs in Japan and #Siberia for early alerts to the intrusion of HPAIVs.

  11. Just arrived in #Sapporo, #Japan, to start my research project at #Hokkaido University 🎉❄ 🗾

    Together with my hosts at the Faculty of Environmental Earth Science, I will work on generating the largest dataset of long-term #wildfire activity in eastern #Siberia to date, while learning a new method for the reconstruction of past #wildfires 🔥

    I am happy to be back in Japan and looking forward to some exciting #science!
