Estimating time since influenza virus exposure using single-cell proteomic data

Klodiana Rizzo Nervo, Neda Hajiakhoond Bidoki, Han Chen, Zainab Rahil, Zach Bjornson, Kenneth Kim, Bonnie Bock, Melton Affrime, Logan Bauerle, Pham Bao Tran Huynh, David Liebowitz, Sean Tucker, Pier Federico Gherardini, Garry P. Nolan, Nima Aghaeepour, David R. McIlwain. frontiersin.org. March 19, 2026.

Rizzo Nervo, Nolan and colleagues model influenza shedding and time since exposure in two controlled challenge datasets. Preinfection baselines and selected healthy cohorts constrain generalization. Several count, legend, validation-method and error-metric descriptions disagree; this is not a UAP-exposure study.

Performance of BioFire array or QuickVue influenza A + B test versus a validation qPCR assay for detection of influenza A during a volunteer A/California/2009/H1N1 challenge study

David R McIlwain, Han Chen, Maria Apkarian, Melton Affrime, Bonnie Bock, Kenneth Kim, Nilanjan Mukherjee, Garry P Nolan, Monica M McNeal. ebi.ac.uk. February 25, 2021.

The authors compare BioFire and QuickVue tests with a study-specific qPCR comparator in selected influenza-challenge samples. Repeated matched swabs come from143 volunteers, and the two comparisons use different specimen sets. A linked correction changes the rapid-test table denominator from351 to299. These results do not establish performance in community infections, current product versions or UAP research.

Sex Differences in the Blood Transcriptome Identify Robust Changes in Immune Cell Proportions with Aging and Influenza Infection

Erika Bongen, Haley Lucian, Avani Khatri, Gabriela K Fragiadakis, Zachary B Bjornson, Garry P Nolan, Paul J Utz, Purvesh Khatri. ebi.ac.uk. November 12, 2019.

The authors derive a144-gene sex-expression signature from public cohorts and explore age, inferred immune composition and influenza response. Cohort reuse and repeated observations limit independent sample counts. Associations do not establish hormone mechanisms or clinical prediction. A retraction linked inside a cited reference concerns that older paper’s epistasis interpretation; it is not a retraction of this study.
