The paper uses airway organoids from wildlife and livestock species to assess susceptibility to influenza viruses, revealing species-specific infection patterns and adaptation mechanisms.

This study compares innate immune responses in newborn and weaned piglets infected with two PEDV strains, finding that weaned piglets have stronger antiviral and pro-inflammatory responses despite similar viral replication.

This paper introduces a knock-in mouse model for SARS-CoV-2 infection that replicates respiratory issues but avoids neurological disease seen in the K18-hACE2 model.
