Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Monica Tallarita"
Monica Tallarita's research primarily focuses on the genomic epidemiology and molecular analysis of SARS-CoV-2, particularly its evolution and spread in Lombardy, Italy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Her studies utilize next-generation sequencing to track multiple viral lineages and assess the viral quasispecies dynamics in different respiratory tract regions of patients, uncovering significant insights into the virus's mutation patterns.
Additionally, her work investigates the implications of residual SARS-CoV-2 RNA in recovered patients for public health protocols, highlighting the challenges in determining infectious status during post-viral recovery.
