Western University has partnered with the Royal Ontario Museum to create the bank by studying bat tissue samples in Westernâs Imaging Pathogens for Knowledge Translation Facility. According to Ryan Troyer, a virologist at the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, the project aims to identify the diverse coronaviruses in bats and develop vaccines to combat future outbreaks before they can spread to a pandemic. ....
Global rise in human infectious disease outbreaks” back in 2014 suggests that the total number of global outbreaks has increased since 1980. Since then, we have had the SARS epidemic back in 2003, the H1N1 virus in 2009, the MERS outbreak in 2012, the Ebola outbreak in 2014, and now COVID-19. Ryan Troyer, PhD, virologist at Schulich Medicine & Dentistry says that they want to be ready for the next coronavirus pandemic and explains the link in bats.
“We find that these coronaviruses in each of those cases, there are related coronaviruses in bats,” Troyer said. “Even though the transmission to humans can is potentially complicated, bats appear to be a unique and important reservoir species for a high diversity of different coronaviruses, including ones very similar to those that have emerged in humans.” ....
Article content To get a head start in the next global pandemic, a team of researchers from Western University are teaming up with biologists from the Royal Ontario Museum to look at thousands of frozen bat tissue samples and bat droppings to develop a bank of ready-made vaccines. The Western team has been hunting for novel coronoviruses endemic to bats that have the potential for animal-to-human transmission. By then isolating the unique spike genes from those viruses, they would be able to form the backbone of a number of ready-made vaccines for future coronavirus outbreaks.
