This study reports the first detection of Nipah virus in Sri Lanka, showing genetic similarity to Indian strains and linking viral shedding to the breeding season of Pteropus medius.

This study identifies Leptospira in Sri Lankan bats, suggesting they may act as reservoirs for leptospirosis, with implications for public health.

The paper analyzes five Monkeypox virus genomes to identify gene duplications and losses as potential adaptations to the human host during the 2022 outbreak.

The paper describes an amplicon-based method for sequencing Monkeypox virus genomes using MinION Nanopore technology, achieving high-quality results even from samples with high Ct values.

This study compares the virome composition of different shedding routes in M. fuliginosus bats, identifying novel viruses and shedding patterns.
