As reported by UT Austin News, a team led by Jason McLellan used structural biology to both capture a high-resolution model of the Andes hantavirus entry machinery and turn that insight into a vaccine ...

The virus often mutates by simply deleting small pieces of its genetic code. The mutations "disguise" the virus from antibodies.

Discover how CRISPR-based therapy could revolutionize HPAI treatment in poultry, offering farmers a lifesaving alternative to complete flock depopulation and preventing costly outbreaks.

Most pandemic viruses that have jumped from animals to humans do not show signs of special adaptations to infect people, except the 1977 influenza outbreak, which was likely “sparked by a laboratory ...

A new University of California San Diego study published in Cell challenges a long-standing assumption about how animal ...

In a new study, researchers across three US states analyzed seven viral outbreaks in recent decades, including Covid, Ebola and influenza, to determine how they emerged and mutated.

Researchers have devised a new tool for discerning between naturally occurring viral outbreaks and those resulting from lab ...
