  • Computational tools for understanding sequence variability in recombination signals. 
  • Deciphering human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transmission and early envelope diversification by single-genome amplification and sequencing. 
  • Differential screening of a human chromosome 3 library identifies hepatocyte growth factor-like/macrophage-stimulating protein and its receptor in injured lung. Possible implications for neuroendocrine cell survival.
