🚨 Just published! New work led by postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Nuraina Dahlan who is developing lung models to study lung function and respiratory infections. Congrats, Nuraina, Neeraj, and Daniel. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

The Singh Lab is excited to announce the release of the 2nd edition of Brain Tumor Stem Cells, in affiliation with the CDCR labs @CDCR_Mac @machealthsci

Excited to share our paper identifying that bat coronavirus HKU5 uses ACE2 from its native bat host and American mink as a receptor. This highlights farmed mink has a high risk intermediate host for HKU5-like viruses. nature.com/articles/s4146… @YaleIBIO @YaleMed

🤩 @NSERC_CRSNG has allocated $1.65 million to train more sensor scientists to develop new technologies that mitigate rapidly evolving dangers from climate change, infectious diseases, and biodiversity loss. The project is led by @SFU’s Dr. Peter Unrau: bit.ly/4mj1zH5

Out Now! Ecology and evolutionary trajectories of morbilliviruses in Neotropical bats bit.ly/452MTX6 #Ecology #Evolution #Morbillivirus

The data from NiV outbreaks of Kerala state indicated that AES-predominant outbreaks (2019, 2021, and 2024) had shown no human-to-human transmission compared to ARDS-predominant outbreaks (2001, 2007, 2018, and 2023).

🚨 New publication out today. Bats are over 1480 species. In this latest article, we discuss the diversity within bats and their immune systems. Elegantly led by the Becker and Frank laboratories. nyaspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ny…

Very excited to share the published results of the Phase I clinical trial of our next-gen inhaled COVID-19 vaccine @NatureComms - designed, tested, manufactured and trialed all @McMasterU!!! Proud of everyone on the large team that has made this happen! rdcu.be/eusbp

🚨Second study from the lab. @CellReports SARS-CoV- and SARS-CoV-2-like viruses are found in insectivorous bats, but the antiviral responses in these bats remain less studied. Here we show how bat cells respond to SARS-CoV-2 and shed light on virus entry. cell.com/cell-reports/f…
