Lifelong cytomegalovirus infection may be beneficial, boosting the immune system in old age, when we need it most

EMBL scientists investigate how influenza virus responds to new drug treatment

Researchers show that altering the molecular interactions between the flu virus and host genes stunts virus replication

The finding could help scientists design strategies to prevent the spread of viral pathogens among these important pollinators

The results of a new experiment refute long-standing studies that indicated the influenza virus degrades and is inactivated sooner as humidity increases

It contains the biggest genome ever sequenced for a virus infecting a photosynthetic organism

Findings discuss how Staphylococcus can colonize our noses but not cause infection

Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute have discovered a new aspect of the flu virus and how it interacts with antibodies in the lungs

Using SLAC’s X-ray laser, researchers have made the detailed 3-D images of nanoscale biology, with future applications in the study of air pollution, combustion, and catalytic processes

This new understanding may help to increase the effectiveness of immune-based therapies against cancer
