Research project studying transmission dynamics and immune response of reemerging St. Louis encephalitis virus and West Nile virus in mosquitoes and avian hosts, funded by NIAID.
Description
The project focuses on the transmission dynamics and immune response related to the reemergence of the St. Louis encephalitis virus and West Nile virus in the US, particularly California. The research involves vector competence, viral fitness, antibody kinetics, and cross-protection studies in mosquitoes and avian hosts. The project is funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).
