Researchers identified a novel virus in pet trade zebrafish that causes hemorrhaging in laboratory fish, revealing a risk of viral transmission. The study found that viruses circulating in healthy pet trade zebrafish can transmit to laboratory animals and cause severe disease.

A new study finds that US universities rely heavily on international students to offset the country's trade deficit, but new tariff and visa policies may reverse this trend. The researchers estimate that a 25% drop in Chinese students from 2017-18 to 2018-19 resulted in $1.1 billion in revenue loss for US universities.
