معرفی
Jelke Fros is an Assistant Professor at Wageningen University & Research, specializing in virology and mosquito-borne viral interactions. His research focuses on flaviviruses (e.g., West Nile, Zika, Chikungunya), RNA interference mechanisms, and antiviral protein dynamics.
- Research Outputs: Over 33 publications, including key contributions to understanding viral genome evolution, xenobiology, and neuroinflammatory impacts of Japanese encephalitis virus.
- Projects: Co-supervises PhD candidates in studies on arthropod-borne virus transmission, single-cell resolution analysis, and synthetic virology for genetic code expansion.
- Awards: Recipient of the 2020 Beijerinck Prize for virology research.
- Collaborations: Active in interdisciplinary networks exploring host immunity evasion, antiviral protein engineering, and mosquito-virus co-infection dynamics.
Research Trends: His recent work emphasizes
- RNA interference in mosquito cell lines
- DNA methylation effects on blood-brain barrier permeability
- Evolutionary virology
- Antiviral protein modulation (e.g., ZAP)
- Synthetic biology applications in virology
- Co-infection dynamics in Culex pipiens mosquitoes
Scientific Awards
- Beijerinck Prize (2020)
