OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.	Bats have been identified as reservoirs of zoonotic and potentially zoonotic pathogens. Significant progress was made in the field of molecular biology with regard to infectious diseases, especially those that infect more than one species. Here we provide readers with a concise summary of the potential and limitations of molecular methods for studying the ecology of bats and bat-related pathogens and microorganisms.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in English	Bats have been identified as reservoirs of zoonotic and potentially zoonotic pathogens. Significant progress was made in the field of molecular biology with regard to infectious diseases, especially those that infect more than one species. Molecular methods, sequencing and bioinformatics have recently become irreplaceable tools in emerging infectious diseases research and even outbreak prediction. Modern methods in the molecular biology field have shed more light on the unique relationship between bats and viruses. Here we provide readers with a concise summary of the potential and limitations of molecular methods for studying the ecology of bats and bat-related pathogens and microorganisms.
OCA17. List of maximum 5 most significant citations corresponding to the output	Quarleri, J., Galvan, V., Delpino, M.V. Henipaviruses: an expanding global public health concern? (2022) GeroScience, 44 (5), pp. 2447-2459. https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85139618344&doi=10.1007%2fs11357-022-00670-9&partnerID=40&md5=15f7ba5b091310a62b31ba287fbfe2cf
OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practice	Worldwide, the access to different sample types is unbalanced, mostly because bats are protected by law in most European countries. To ensure proper bat conservation, non-invasive samples should be preferred. In future, bat-related EID research will benefit from finding ways to enhance the informative value of non-invasive samples, for example a systematic approach to metagenomics analysis of multiple non-invasive sample types collected from the same individual, combined with the research of viromes of bat-related arthropods and their immediate environment. Collecting samples from the environment and other mammals may provide further information about bats as reservoirs.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational process	The publication will provide an overview of modern scientific approaches to the study of pathogens circulating in bats. Therefore, it is a beneficial basis for teaching animal-oriented courses and animal health courses.
