The majority of human emerging infectious diseases are zoonotic, with viruses that originate
in wild mammals of particular concern (for example, HIV, Ebola and SARS),,. Understanding …

At least 10,000 species of mammal virus are estimated to have the potential to spread in
human populations, but the vast majority are currently circulating in wildlife, largely …

During recent decades, pathogens that originated in bats have become an increasing public
health concern. A major challenge is to identify how those pathogens spill over into human …

Emerging infectious diseases in humans are frequently caused by pathogens originating
from animal hosts, and zoonotic disease outbreaks present a major challenge to global …

Understanding interspecific viral transmission is key to understanding viral ecology and
evolution, disease spillover into humans, and the consequences of global change. Prior …
