Febrile temperature activates the innate immune response by promoting aberrant influenza A virus RNA synthesis

Karishma Bisht, Daniel Weilandt, Caitlin H. Lamb, Elizaveta Elshina, Cameron Myhrvold, Aartjan J.W. te Velthuis

This study shows that fever during influenza A virus infection increases antiviral signaling by promoting aberrant RNA synthesis and innate immune activation.

Amplification-free Detection of Zoonotic Viruses Using Cas13 and Multiple CRISPR RNAs

Caitlin H. Lamb, Silke A. Riesle‐Sbarbaro, Joseph B. Prescott, Aartjan J.W. te Velthuis, Cameron Myhrvold, Benjamin E. Nilsson-Payant

This study develops an amplification-free CRISPR-Cas13 assay for detecting zoonotic viruses and finds that multiple crRNAs improve sensitivity for some viruses but not others.

Rapid Detection of Active Coronavirus Infection by Lateral Flow Test Strips: A New Approach to Distinguish Replicating Viruses from Non-Replicating Viruses

Darnell Davis, Caitlin H. Lamb, Cameron Myhrvold, Hemayet Ullah

This paper develops a CRISPR-based lateral flow assay to detect active coronavirus infection by targeting negative-sense RNA, distinguishing replicating from non-replicating viruses.
