Dengue disease severity in humans is augmented by waning Japanese encephalitis virus immunity
Waning immunity to Japanese encephalitis virus was associated with increased severity of dengue disease in a cohort of patients from Nepal.

I’m thrilled to share our latest preprint! We analyzed >130,000 SARS-CoV-2 genomes from MA to investigate complex transmission dynamics—from statewide patterns, within specific facilities, and at the individual level 🦠🧬

Geospatial and demographic patterns of SARS-CoV-2 spread in Massachusetts from over 130,000 genomes
Despite intensive study, gaps remain in our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 transmission patterns during the COVID-19 pandemic, in part due to limited contextual metadata accompanying most large genomic s...

Without clear protocols to catch errors, artificial intelligence’s growing role in science could do more harm than good.
