In 2013, the first Koala Retrovirus Workshop was held in San Diego, bringing together biology and veterinary specialists to assess discuss state of knowledge on koala retrovirus (KoRV) form professional bridges networks. Tremendous progress has been made years following Diego meeting, large part due ongoing international collaborations that were fostered study KoRV. This volume presents peer-reviewed papers from most oral presentations discussions during Second 2021. Unfortunately, COVID-19 pandemic forced workshop into an online only format.

Here we characterize a KoRV newly isolated from an animal in a German zoo and show infection of human and rat cell lines in vitro and of rats in vivo, using immunological and PCR methods fo...
متن کاملKoala Retrovirus in Free-Ranging Populations — Prevalence
The prevalence of koala retrovirus (KoRV) provirus (DNA) and the average number of proviral insertions per cell vary in different free-ranging koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) populations across Australia. Populations in the northern states of Queensland and New South Wales have 100% proviral prevalence and mean proviral copy number of 140–165 per cell. In contrast, the proviral prevalence in the...
متن کاملProceedings of the second “ international Traveling Workshop
We consider the problem of audio source localization in a medium with unknown characteristics, particularly the speed of sound within the medium. We propose an algorithm to retrieve both the speed of sound and the localized signals under reasonable assumptions such as smoothness of medium structure. We present initial simulation results for stationary sinusoidal sources both for the case of uni...
متن کاملPreface to the Second International Workshop on Personalizing Persuasive Technologies
Personalizing Persuasive Technologies (PPTs) is a growing research area which investigates how interactive systems can be designed to better suit people of various dispositions, inclinations, and capabilities, and hence increase the efficacy of persuasive technology to motivate behavior change. Research has found that individual characteristics such as personality type [21–23], age [20], gender...
