Global shifts in mammalian population trends reveal key predictors of virus spillover risk
Emerging infectious diseases in humans are frequently caused by pathogens originating from animal hosts, and zoonotic disease outbreaks present a major challenge to global health.

Ranking the risk of animal-to-human spillover for newly discovered viruses
Significance The recent emergence and spread of zoonotic viruses, including Ebola virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, demonstrate that animal-sourced viruses are a very real threat to global public health.

What is a behavioral spillover? How can a spillover be uncovered from the data? What is the precise link between the underlying psychological theory of a spillover and the econometric assumptions which are necessary to estimate it? This paper draws on recent advancements in causal inference, behavioral economics, psychology, and neuroscience to develop

A fundamental viewpoint on the hydrogen spillover phenomenon of electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution
Hydrogen spillover phenomenon of metal-supported electrocatalysts can significantly impact their activity in hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, design of active electrocatalysts faces grand challenges due to the insufficient understandings on ...

Ecology, evolution and spillover of coronaviruses from bats
In the past two decades, three coronaviruses with ancestral origins in bats have emerged and caused widespread outbreaks in humans, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Bat-borne virus diversity, spillover and emergence
Most viral pathogens in humans have animal origins and arose through cross-species transmission. Over the past 50 years, several viruses, including Ebola virus, Marburg virus, Nipah virus, Hendra virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-

Network experiment designs for inferring causal effects under interference
Current approaches to A/B testing in networks focus on limiting interference, the concern that treatment effects can “spill over” from treatment nodes to control nodes and lead to biased causal effect estimation. In the presence of interference, two main

Synthesizing the connections between environmental disturbances and zoonotic spillover [PDF]
Zoonotic spillover is a phenomenon characterized by the transfer of pathogens between different animal species. Most human emerging infectious diseases originate from non-human animals, and human-related environmental disturbances are the driving forces ...
