We speak to Daniel J. Leybourne, runner-up of the 2024 Biology Letters Early Career Researcher Competition for the research paper Genetic diversity in vector populations influences the transmission efficiency of an important plant virus.

New research published in Proceedings B takes a modelling approach to investigate co-infection scenarios of different respiratory viruses.

A recently published Proceedings B article ‘Temperature drives Zika virus transmission: evidence from empirical and mathematical models’ looked at the thermal performance of Zika virus and its possible host range. Dr Courtney Murdock, College of Veterinary Medicine, Athens, Georgia tells us more about the paper.
