By developing a new technique for labeling the gene segments of influenza viruses, researchers now know more about how influenza viruses enter the cell and establish cell co-infections — a major contributing factor to potential pandemic development.
Our collaborative influenza projects: 1) characterizing the temporal and spatial evolutionary dynamics of the IAV and IBV circulating globally in humans and wild birds, 2) identifying the IAV genotypes circulating in pigs at county fairs (swine - human interface) to determine if fairs produce novel reassortants or enable zoonosis / reverse zoonosis, 3) determining if specific internal gene segment constellations enhance viral fitness, 4) detecting epistatic interactions between gene segments, and 5) assessing the impact of inter-hemispheric migration of viruses / gene segments.
