Monkeypox is a rare infection caused by a virus that circulates in some animals in forested areas of Central and West Africa.

The oncolytic virus has been shown to shrink colon, lung, breast, ovarian and pancreatic cancer tumors in preclinical laboratory models.

Researchers have just found a way to block one strain of the influenza virus from accessing a human protein it needs to replicate in cells.

The virus has been designed specifically to kill cancer and works by enhancing the body's immune response against cancer cells.

Research team has developed a new microfluidic chip for diagnosing diseases that can be powered wirelessly by a smartphone.

The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine reduces cervical cancer rates by 87% in women who were offered the jab between the ages of 12-13.

Viral mimicry, tricks the body into thinking that it has a viral infection, stimulating immune responses that can help the body fight cancer

The Serratus Project is a supercomputing collaboration that analyzed close to 6 million biological samples, or 20 million gigabytes of data.

Researchers from West Virginia University are studying how a benign virus can make new treatments for eye diseases possible.

The human body’s immune system weakens over time, making older adults more susceptible to infections and leaving scientists with a dilemma.

Researchers at the NIH have discovered a therapy that targets host cells rather than bacterial cells in treating bacterial pneumonia.

Researchers have revealed the HPV vaccination programme prevented approximately 450 cervical cancers and 17,200 pre-cancers by mid 2019.

Researchers assessed 38 different studies from 13 countries on the risk of infectious disease transmission in public washrooms.

Alphaviruses — mosquito-borne viruses that can trigger brain infections and arthritis — may have met their match.
