- Defining the virome: TWiV 365: Blood, feuds, and a foodborne disease, TWiV 362: Gotta catch ’em all, TWiV 356: Got viruses?, TWiV 355: Baby’s first virome, TWiV 342: Public epitope #1, TWiV 323: A skid loader full of viromes
- Ebola outbreak wanes, vaccines tested, persistence noted: TWiV 361: Zombie viruses on the loose, TWiV 349: One ring to vaccinate them all, TWiV 341: Ebolavirus experiences, TWiV 336: Brought to you by the letters H, N, P, and Eye, TWiV 335: Ebola lite

- The “Gain of Function” debate continues: TWiV 321: aTrip and a pause, TWiV 351: The dengue code, TWiV 354: The cat in the HAART, TWiV 363: Eat flu and dyad, and the NSABB’s new draft report
- Detailed mechanisms of pathogenesis: TWiV 336: Brought to you by the letters H, N, P, and eye, and TWiV 345: How a vaccine got the nod - plus numerous episodes (324, 328, 329, 330, 339, 343, 349, 353, 369) where we talked about basic research that undergirds these clinically important discoveries.
- Dengue vaccines: Trial TWiV 319: Breaking breakbone. Dengvaxia was licensed in December in Mexico, Philippines, and Brazil (12/28); paper we didn’t have time to cover about broadly neutralizing Abs from viremic patients and another paper from same group with X-ray crystal structure of Ab + gpE.
- Why do some RNA viruses undergo antigenic variation and others do not? TWiV 340: No shift, measles
- TWiV 346: A double helical career
- TWiV 345: How a vaccine got the nod
