“Molecular evolution of SARS-CoV-2 and related bat coronaviruses”

Dr. Anthony’s research focuses on zoonotic and emerging infectious diseases, and specifically on the discovery, ecology, and evolution of viruses. He is interested in the factors that increase the risk of disease emergence in new hosts, including host or viral traits, and in the eco-evolutionary mechanisms that shape patterns of variation across scales.
