Unveiling Origin Pitfalls in Metagenomic Surveillance for Emerging Infectious Diseases: Parvoviruses as a Model

open access: yesiMetaMed, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2025.
A diverse reagent‐associated virome, including parvoviruses, misleads zoonotic surveillance. By leveraging large language models (ChatGPT‐4o), we construct a virus discovery data framework (PVDDC) and ParvoDB to access and correct host misattributions, thereby enhancing the accuracy of metagenomic surveillance for emerging zoonotic diseases.

A new underwater camera trap for freshwater wildlife monitoring

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, Page 1625-1635, August 2025.
Abstract Amphibians are among the most threatened groups of vertebrates worldwide and spend a significant part of their lifecycle in freshwater ecosystems. As for many freshwater organisms, monitoring their populations is limited by the lack of robust and standard methods applicable across large spatial scales.
