Abstract

There is an urgent need to improve our understanding of the factors governing cross-species transmission of coronaviruses. This timely and important proposal aims to understand the molecular factors that both limit and facilitate the emergence of novel coronaviruses in human populations, and to identify other coronaviruses that could emerge with pandemic potential.
