Divergent SARS-CoV-2 emerges in white-tailed deer

Our research about a divergent SARS-CoV-2 lineage in white-tailed deer has now been published in its peer-reviewed form in Nature Microbiology. The paper, entitled “Divergent SARS-CoV-2 variant emerges in white-tailed deer with deer-to-human transmission” is freely available here.

Congratulations!

Congratulations to recent batty students Laura Scott and Ryan Holt on defending their M.Sc. theses at Trent!

Welcome!
