Science&Cocktails is back for the kick-off of the third season in Brussels! Brace yourselves to welcome Medical Microbiologist and Researcher Emmanuel André, former adviser in the Outbreak Management Team of the Belgian Government. He will elaborate on virus outbreaks such as the Corona-virus and how we can be prepared for further pandemics.

How do infectious diseases spread? Is the outbreak of the novel Corona virus part of an increasing set of global virus outbreaks? Did virus outbreaks really increase in the last years? Why is this? Should we be worried? What can we do to prevent and respond to such outbreaks?
