Alexandre Stockholm, from the Université de Lorraine, successfully completed his ten-week internship with us. 🎉👏
He explored the role of birds in the tick-borne disease borreliosis, under the supervision of Dr. Aleksandra Krawczyk. Alexandre will continue to work with us in August as summer student!

Together with Dr Ben Mamou from WHO EURO, Dr Judith Hübschen and Emilie Charpentier conducted an onsite accreditation visit to the National Measles and Rubella Laboratory in North Macedonia in June 2025. Congratulation to the team for successful accreditation!

Influenza A and B were reliably detected in wastewater, closely aligning with clinical trends📈. Novel methods to define flu seasons using wastewater data show promise for complementary community-level disease surveillance👩‍🔬. #PublicHealth #WastewaterSurveillance #Luxembourg

Our Clinical & Applied Virology group has worked with WHO for 20+ years to fight measles & rubella. It took years to build a strong global lab network (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39204069/), but its future is uncertain. WHO seeks new funders - every contribution helps!
