Abstract / Zusammenfassung

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