Pearls: Viruses

Published June 6, 2019

PLOS Pathogens presents an Open Access compendium of the "lessons-that-last." This section, founded by Dr. Hiten Madhani and now led by Dr. Joseph Heitman and a team of twelve Pearls Editors, is a living collection of short educational and highly useful articles that address topics of relevance and importance within the wide-ranging field of pathogens research, with insights for trainees and scientists at all career stages.
