An inactivated multivalent influenza A virus vaccine is broadly protective in mice and ferrets

J. Park, S. Fong, L. M. Schwartzman, Z.-M. Sheng, A. Freeman, L. Matthews, Y. Xiao, M. D. Ramuta, N. A. Batchenkova, L. Qi, L. A. Rosas, S. Williams, K. Scherler, M. Gouzoulis, I. Bellayr, , J. K. Taubenberger

This study shows an inactivated multivalent influenza A vaccine provides broad protection against diverse IAV subtypes in mice and ferrets, including non-vaccine strains, suggesting its potential as a universal vaccine.

Artificial mosaic brain evolution of relative telencephalon size improves cognitive performance in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata)

Z. Triki, S. Fong, M. Amcoff, N. Kolm

This study shows that artificially selected guppies with larger relative telencephalon size outperformed those with smaller telencephalon in a detour task, indicating a cognitive benefit from increased telencephalon size.

Rapid mosaic brain evolution under artificial selection for relative telencephalon size in the guppy (Poecilia reticulata)

S. Fong, B. Rogell, M. Amcoff, A. Kotrschal, W. van der Bijl, S. D. Buechel, N. Kolm

This study shows that artificial selection on telencephalon size in guppies leads to changes in that brain region without affecting other regions, supporting mosaic brain evolution.

A VP2/3-derived peptide exhibits potent antiviral activity against BK and JC polyomaviruses by targeting a novel VP1 binding site

J. R. Kane, S. Fong, J. Shaul, A. Frommlet, A. O. Frank, M. Knapp, D. E. Bussiere, P. Kim, E. Ornelas, C. Cuellar, J. R. Abend, C. A. Wartchow

The paper identifies a VP2/3-derived peptide that inhibits BK and JC polyomaviruses by binding to a novel VP1 pore site, showing potent antiviral activity with low nanomolar affinity.
