Seema Lakdawala works in the field of influenza virology. In this mSphere of Influence article, she reflects on how the article "Conserved and host-specific features of influenza virion architecture" by Edward C. Hutchinson et al. (Nat Commun 5:4816, 2014, https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms5816) made an impact on her thinking about what constitutes an infectious virus and how influenza viruses can spread within and among hosts.
