Convalescence from prototype SARS-CoV-2 protects Syrian hamsters from disease caused by the Omicron variant

This study shows that prior infection with a prototype SARS-CoV-2 strain protects Syrian hamsters from Omicron-induced disease.

Dose-dependent response to infection with SARS-CoV-2 in the ferret model: evidence of protection to re-challenge

This study investigates the dose-dependent response of ferrets to SARS-CoV-2 infection, showing protection against re-challenge and mild clinical disease.

Comparison of Rhesus and Cynomolgus macaques as an authentic model for COVID-19.

This study compares rhesus and cynomolgus macaques as models for mild to moderate COVID-19, showing similar viral replication, immune responses, and histopathology.

Forecasting biodiversity in breeding birds using best practices

This study evaluates biodiversity forecasts for breeding birds using best practices, finding that no model consistently outperformed a baseline constant richness model.

Body Size Shifts Influence Effects Of Increasing Temperatures On Ectotherm Metabolism

The paper examines how body size shifts affect the metabolic responses of ectotherms to increasing temperatures.

Bees Without Flowers: Before Peak Bloom, Diverse Native Bees Visit Insect-produced Honeydew Sugars

The paper observes diverse native bees visiting non-flowering shrubs for honeydew sugars without floral cues, suggesting novel sensory mechanisms or social foraging networks.

An extensive comparison of species-abundance distribution models.

The paper compares four species-abundance distribution models using likelihood and AIC across 16,000 communities, finding the log-series model provides the best fit overall.
