This study shows H5N5 viruses have been repeatedly introduced across the Atlantic by high latitude seabirds, with more frequent introductions in fall and spring, and a distinct ecology from H5N1.

The paper develops a single-amplicon sequencing method to recover coding-complete genomes of enteroviruses and rhinoviruses from clinical specimens, showing higher fidelity and lower cost than hybridization capture.

The paper identifies and characterizes a stably integrated Alphatorquevirus genome in the SKNO-1 acute myeloid leukemia cell line, demonstrating its transcriptional maintenance and chromatin accommodation.

The paper evaluates a tiling amplicon panel for RSV whole genome sequencing, showing high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in clinical and contrived samples.

The paper develops and validates 12 new VADR models for human respiratory viruses, achieving high accuracy in genome annotation and identifying novel viral biology.
