Ribonucleic acid (RNA) has a breathtaking variety of biological functions, which far exceeds its classical role as a carrier of genetic information. The repertoire of this versatile molecule...
We currently do not have effective vaccines or antiviral drugs for most of the viral diseases that afflict humans. Antiviral therapies that enable long-term control over human immunodeficien...
Early detection is critical for prompt and effective treatment of acute infectious diseases. For tick-borne diseases (TBD), the lack of accurate early diagnosis can result in delayed treatme...
Health economists are great at calculating a value-based price for diagnostic tests. Given the unexpected supply and demand for SARS-CoV-2 tests during the pandemic, efficient allocation of...
Existing methods for antibiotic selection are based on outdated and inaccurate microbiological principles, causing millions of inappropriate antibiotic selections and hundreds of thousands o...
Analysis of community wastewater has been shown to be an effective method for tracking the prevalence of SARS-COV-2. Our group has developed techniques for sequencing a portion of the SARS-C...
Saliva serves as a reservoir for the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT). Saliva collection is non-invasive, convenient, and amenable to self-collection. Thus, saliva is an ideal resource for l...
