After discovering a case of bird flu jumping from a dairy cow to a human, scientists have been scrambling to reverse engineer that strain of the virus and test it in laboratory settings. To that end, let’s discuss several papers that came out of this effort.

| 1:25.2 | in the New England Journal of Medicine, confirming |
