The study sampled skuas on the Antarctic Peninsula and found HPAI H5N1 in all but one carcass, indicating the virus is established in Antarctica despite low prevalence.

This study tracks the spread and evolution of H5N1 in the sub-Antarctic and Antarctica, revealing long-distance dispersal and mammalian-adaptive mutations.

This paper develops an improved long amplicon method for nanopore-based RSV whole genome sequencing, achieving 85.9% success rate and comparable results to short amplicon methods.

The paper develops a simplified amplicon-based method for whole genome sequencing of RSV viruses, achieving high success rates and coverage with reduced cost and time.
