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 paper develops porcine nasal organoids to study host-microbe interactions in respiratory infections and shows that Rothia nasimurium inhibits inflammation from other bacteria.

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.

The paper evaluates nanopore sequencing for rapid AIV profiling, showing its ability to accurately reconstruct viral genomes and detect RNA modifications.
