OverviewAI-generated summary

Tamika J. Lunn's research investigates viral load dynamics and pathogen detection in animal populations, with a particular focus on bats. Her work includes studying periodic shifts in viral load and the interannual variation in serology for diseases like Hendra virus in immature bat cohorts. Lunn also examines the asynchronous seasonal dynamics of ectoparasites, such as nycteribiid bat flies, and their associated microbial communities, like Bartonella spp., in Australian flying foxes (Pteropus spp.).

Her publications also address the development and application of diagnostic assays for novel viruses, such as new parajeilongviruses detected in bats. This research contributes to understanding zoonotic potential and screening methodologies. Lunn has 28 total publications and collaborates with Kristian M. Forbes at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
