A Journey Through the Virosphere | The Royal Societywww.youtube.com The Croonian lecture 2024 is given by professor Edward C. Holmes Viruses are everywhere, yet we know remarkably little about them. In this lecture Professor Holmes will show how recent technological developments in ‘metagenomics’ have enabled scientists to glimpse the total universe of viruses - the virosphere - for the first time. This new research shows that viruses are far older, more diverse and more complex than we previously realised, and that their reputation for always causing disease is perhaps misplaced. Professor Holmes will discuss the major drivers of virus evolution, the role played by viruses within global ecosystems and how major events in animal evolution, such as the origin of the vertebrates, have shaped the diversity and evolution of the viruses they carry. He will show how advances in artificial intelligence are enabling scientists to describe the outer edges of the virosphere. Finally, Professor Holmes will discuss how new genomic technologies provide a powerful way to rapidly reveal the animal origins of infectious disease epidemics and track their spread through our species, including COVID-19. The Royal Society is a Fellowship of many of the world's most eminent scientists and is the oldest scientific academy in continuous existence. ▶https://royalsociety.org/ 🔔Subscribe to our channel for exciting science videos and live events, many hosted by Brian Cox, our Professor for Public Engagement: https://bit.ly/3fQIFXB We’re also on Twitter ▶ https://twitter.com/royalsociety Facebook ▶ https://www.facebook.com/theroyalsociety/ Instagram ▶ https://www.instagram.com/theroyalsociety/ And LinkedIn ▶ https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-royal-society
