This paper develops a stop-and-go chemoenzymatic method to synthesize asymmetrical bi-antennary glycans and uses them to study receptor binding evolution of human influenza A viruses.

The paper examines host phylogeny and ecological factors influencing avian influenza susceptibility in Australian wild birds, finding phylogeny is a key driver of susceptibility.

The paper uses antigenic cartography to analyze cross-reactivity among SARS-CoV-2 variants and human sera, identifying amino acid substitutions and immunodominance patterns affecting immune escape and vaccine efficacy.

This study investigates the evolutionary dynamics of avian influenza A virus in waterfowl, finding lineage replacement and reassortment across multiple viral segments over time.

The paper identifies recombination hotspots near snoRNA binding sites in RNA sequences of H7 influenza A viruses that lead to MBCS insertions.

This study shows SARS-CoV-2 spreads via direct contact and air between ferrets, supporting social distancing measures.

The paper tests how epistatic interactions affect antigenic changes in influenza H3N2 hemagglutinin substitutions at positions 145 and 155.

This study tracks avian influenza virus evolution in wild birds across three migratory flyways in Georgia, revealing subtype diversity, reassortment patterns, and genetic relationships with global AIV populations.
