This study examines KoRV profiles in koalas from the Snowy Monaro region, finding lower viral loads and unique subtype distributions compared to northern populations.

This study reanalyzes koala chlamydia vaccine trial data, identifies biases and errors, and finds no significant protective efficacy of the vaccine.

The paper generates antigen-specific recombinant bat antibodies from Pteropus alecto to study bat antibody immunity and provides new diagnostic tools.

This paper develops a bispecific antibody that targets both Nipah virus surface glycoproteins, reducing viral escape and enhancing protection against NiV disease.

This study shows SARS-CoV-2 activates microglial NLRP3 inflammasome via spike-ACE2 interaction, potentially linking viral infection to neurological symptoms like Parkinson's.

The paper analyzes the piRNA response to retroviral invasion in koalas, finding that KoRV piRNAs are sense-biased and derived from unspliced transcripts, suggesting a conserved innate immune mechanism.
