Diebold O, Zhou S, Sharp C, Tesla B, Chook H, Digard P, et al.
Viruses
. 2024 Sep;
16(9).
PMID: 39339871
RNA virus polymerases carry out multiple functions necessary for successful genome replication and transcription. A key tool for molecular studies of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRps) is a 'minigenome' or...

. 2022 Apr;
96(10):e0016522.
PMID: 35467365
Zika virus is a mosquito-borne flavivirus known to cause severe birth defects and neuroimmunological disorders. We have previously demonstrated that mosquito transmission of Zika virus decreases with temperature. While transmission...

J R Soc Interface
. 2021 May;
18(178):20210165.
PMID: 33947225
When a rare pathogen emerges to cause a pandemic, it is critical to understand its dynamics and the impact of mitigation measures. We use experimental data to parametrize a temperature-dependent...

Glob Chang Biol
. 2020 Oct;
27(1):84-93.
PMID: 33037740
In the aftermath of the 2015 pandemic of Zika virus (ZIKV), concerns over links between climate change and emerging arboviruses have become more pressing. Given the potential that much of...

Ferreira P, Tesla B, Horacio E, Nahum L, Brindley M, de Oliveira Mendes T, et al.
Front Microbiol
. 2020 Jun;
11:901.
PMID: 32595607
Vector-borne flaviviruses are emerging threats to human health. For successful transmission, the virus needs to efficiently enter mosquito cells and replicate within and escape several tissue barriers while mosquitoes elicit...

PLoS Negl Trop Dis
. 2018 Aug;
12(8):e0006733.
PMID: 30133450
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arbovirus primarily transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Like most viral infections, ZIKV viremia varies over several orders of magnitude, with unknown consequences for transmission. To determine...

Tesla B, Demakovsky L, Mordecai E, Ryan S, Bonds M, Ngonghala C, et al.
Proc Biol Sci
. 2018 Aug;
285(1884).
PMID: 30111605
Temperature is a strong driver of vector-borne disease transmission. Yet, for emerging arboviruses we lack fundamental knowledge on the relationship between transmission and temperature. Current models rely on the untested...

Viruses
. 2017 Dec;
9(12).
PMID: 29258204
Zika virus (ZIKV) has quietly circulated in Africa and Southeast Asia for the past 65 years. However, the recent ZIKV epidemic in the Americas propelled this mosquito-borne virus to the...

PLoS Negl Trop Dis
. 2017 May;
11(5):e0005640.
PMID: 28558030
Most statistical and mechanistic models used to predict mosquito-borne disease transmission incorporate climate drivers of disease transmission by utilizing environmental data collected at geographic scales that are potentially coarser than...

. 2017 Feb;
1399(1):61-77.
PMID: 28187236
The reemergence and growing burden of mosquito-borne virus infections have incited public fear and growing research efforts to understand the mechanisms of infection-associated health outcomes and to provide better approaches...
