Join the free, hour-long , where authors will present their recently published ® (JVI) articles and share the story behind their research with the wider academic community. Presentations are followed by an open forum panel discussion with all speakers and participants. JVI editors will moderate the sessions, including the discussion and live Q&A.
New Insights Into Arterivirus Receptor Usage and Tropism
November 18, 2025 | 10 a.m. ET
Viruses in the Arteriviridae鈥痜amily are +ssRNA-enveloped viruses within the broader Nidovirales鈥痮rder, which also contains coronaviruses. Although arteriviruses are widespread in mammals (including non-human primates) and can cause a range of serious diseases (including pneumonia, abortion, encephalitis, viral hemorrhagic fever, to subclinical persistent viremia), they have never been shown to infect humans.
To shed light on these important but understudied pathogens, join us for the next Journal of Virology Seminar Series webinar, where Adam Bailey, M.D., Ph.D., will present his lab’s recent studies on arteriviruses. The webinar will highlight the Bailey Laboratory’s recent paper, , which examines arterivirus entry, persistence, tropism, pathogenesis and cross-species transmission. This body of work underscores the vast unknowns in arterivirus biology and highlights several unexplained phenomena ripe for further investigation. Don’t miss this chance to hear what these findings reveal—and the new questions they raise—about a virus family still full of surprises.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Understand what arteriviruses are.
- Understand the connections between viral receptor utilization and tropism.
- Understand how to develop tools for genetic interrogation of virus/host interactions.
Presenters
- Adam Bailey, M.D., Ph.D., University of Wisconsin–Madison.
- Moderated by David Levy, Ph.D., NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
- Hosted by Felicia Goodrum, Ph.D., Co-Editor in Chief, Journal of Virology, Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth.
About the Journal
The ® (JVI) is a 91麻豆天美 journal dedicated to publishing primary research, minireviews and other article formats that interrogate fundamental processes and structure in viruses, the mechanisms by which they interact and evolve with their host and environment, novel methodologies and therapeutic and diagnostic strategies.
