The X Factor in Immunity: Sex Differences Shaped by the X Chromosome
ABSTRACT There are sex differences with immune responses where females exhibit stronger immune responses compared to males. Both sex hormones and sex chromosome differences between males and females contribute to the observed sex differences with innate and adaptive immune cell composition and function.

Early Prediction of Antigenic Transitions for Influenza A H3N2
AbstractInfluenza A/H3N2 is a rapidly evolving virus which experiences major antigenic transitions every two to eight years. Anticipating the timing and outcome of transitions is critical to developing effective seasonal influenza vaccines. Using simulations from a published phylodynamic model of influenza transmission, we identified indicators of ...

Strain Agnostic Influenza Virus Propagation in a Serum‐Free, Suspension‐Adapted MDCK Cell Line
ABSTRACT Background The continuing circulation and evolution of seasonal influenza viruses remains a public health and socioeconomic threat on a global scale. Viral surveillance and vaccination of the public have been relied upon to confer and boost immunity in the population. Traditionally, influenza strains are propagated in embryonated chicken eggs,
