As SARS-CoV-2 continues to spread and evolve, detecting emerging variants early is critical
for public health interventions. Inferring lineage prevalence by clinical testing is infeasible …

Hypoxia-inducible factor pathway genes are linked to adaptation in both human and
nonhuman highland species. EPAS1, a notable target of hypoxia adaptation, is associated with …

The ability to respond rapidly to changes in oxygen tension is critical for many forms of life.
Challenges to oxygen homeostasis, specifically in the contexts of evolutionary biology and …

Background Schools are high-risk settings for SARS-CoV-2 transmission, but necessary for
children's educational and social-emotional wellbeing. Previous research suggests that …

EGLN1 encodes the hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF) pathway prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD2)
that serves as an oxygen‐sensitive regulator of HIF activity. The EGLN1 locus exhibits a …

Study Objectives Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and obstructive sleep apnea overlap
syndrome is associated with excess mortality, and outcomes are related to the degree of …

Environmental monitoring in public spaces can be used to identify surfaces contaminated
by persons with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and inform appropriate infection …

Monitoring severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) on surfaces is
emerging as an important tool for identifying past exposure to individuals shedding viral RNA. …

The maturation of genomic surveillance in the past decade has enabled tracking of the
emergence and spread of epidemics at an unprecedented level. During the COVID-19 pandemic, …

Human populations at high altitude exhibit both unique physiological responses and strong
genetic signatures of selection thought to compensate for the decreased availability of …
