This study examines T cell responses during SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infections, showing rapid recall of memory T cells and a correlation between CD8+ T cell activation and viral clearance.

This paper adapts a transmitted/founder SHIV to enhance replication in rhesus macaques while preserving HIV-1 Env biology, resulting in a more fit virus for NHP HIV studies.

This study examines antibody and memory B cell responses after a third dose of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine, showing improved antibody quality and stable memory B cells capable of recognizing multiple variants.

The paper shows that systemic host inflammation slows malaria parasite maturation and alters their transcriptomic profile in vivo.

This study uses single-cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq to show a progressive transition from effector to memory CD4+ T cells during Plasmodium infection, with linear pathways and memory-associated gene expression.

The paper identifies a novel RNA virus, MaRNAV-1, associated with Plasmodium vivax in humans and mosquitoes, and a related virus in birds infected with Leucocytozoon parasites.

This paper uses molecularly barcoded Zika virus to study in vivo infection dynamics in pregnant and non-pregnant macaques and mosquitoes, finding stable lineage proportions during acute infection but a rapid decline in complexity post-infection in pregnant animals.
