All roads lead to infection: A mechanistic model to assess transmission routes of brucellosis in a wild ungulate population

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Wildlife and domestic populations frequently share diseases with a potential for cross‐species transmission, posing significant threats to animal and human health, economy and biodiversity conservation.

The human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 is necessary for the production of Group 2 influenza A virus pseudotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The monomer of influenza haemagglutinin is synthesized as a single polypeptide precursor that during maturation is cleaved by proteases into two active subunits. Other studies have demonstrated that the human Transmembrane Protease Serine 2 (TMPRSS2) can

DIGITAL TECHNOSCIENTIFIC SOCIALITIES AS AN ENTANGLED COMMONS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this contribution I examine digital technoscientific socialities through ethnographic fieldwork with Health for All, an interdisciplinary network formed at the start of the Covid‐19 outbreak. I expand the entangled commons framework for anthropological inquiry into collaborative, data‐intensive science, arguing that digital technoscientific

Intra- and interspecies transmission of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus during the avian influenza epidemic in the Netherlands in 2003

open access: yes, 2009
The poultry epidemic of H7N7 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus in the Netherlands in 2003 was probably the result of the introduction of an H7N7 low pathogenic avian influenza (LPAI) virus (by interspecies transmission from wild birds) and ...

Characterization of an H10N8 influenza virus isolated from Dongting lake wetland

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
Background Wild birds, especially those in wetlands and aquatic environments, are considered to be natural reservoirs of avian influenza viruses. It is accepted that water is an important component in the transmission cycle of avian influenza virus ...

Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate

Research Direction and Science Evaluation: The Role of Coherence and Alignment

open access: yesJournal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The decisions of funding agencies greatly influence the direction of scientific research; however, our understanding of how applicants' research directions affect the selection process remains limited. In this study, we investigate how a project's coherence with a scientist's previous work and its alignment with current scientific trends ...

Surveillance of Wild Birds for Avian Influenza Virus

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
Recent demand for increased understanding of avian influenza virus in its natural hosts, together with the development of high-throughput diagnostics, has heralded a new era in wildlife disease surveillance. However, survey design, sampling, and interpretation in the context of host populations still present major challenges.

Replication, Pathogenesis and Transmission of Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Virus in Non-Immune Pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The declaration of the human influenza A pandemic (H1N1) 2009 (H1N1/09) raised important questions, including origin and host range [1,2]. Two of the three pandemics in the last century resulted in the spread of virus to pigs (H1N1, 1918; H3N2, 1968 ...
