LucaVirus predicts viral evolution and function using a unified nucleotide-protein language model, achieving state-of-the-art results in key virology tasks.

AMPBAN is a deep learning model that integrates protein sequence and structural features to predict antimicrobial peptides, showing superior performance compared to existing methods.

This paper develops a three-in-one mucosal vaccine, 3Rs-NC, that elicits broad neutralizing antibodies against three ACE2-using sarbecovirus clusters and provides durable protection in mice.

The paper analyzes the infectome of bat kidneys from Yunnan, China, identifying novel viruses, a protozoan parasite, and bacterial species, including henipaviruses related to Hendra and Nipah viruses.

The paper identifies a functional antibody against SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein that inhibits complement hyper-activation.
