When ancient viruses speak: the HERVCOV project story (Podcast episode 1)

In this introductory episode of the HERVCOV podcast, we explore the fascinating world of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) and their unexpected connection to COVID-19 and Long-COVID. Discover how ancient viral fragments hidden in our DNA can influence modern immune responses, the origins of the HERVCOV project, its European collaborators, and its mission to identify biomarkers for personalized treatments. A journey into genomics, cutting-edge research, and the impact of viruses both past and present.
