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

COVID-19 variants have sent scientists scrambling to determine whether existing vaccinations and boosters are still effective.

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

It sounds like a scene from a spy thriller. An attacker gets through the IT defenses of a nuclear power plant and feeds it fake data.

The researchers were inspired by how light is concentrated in butterfly wings and have discovered a new way to concentrate light on a chip.

A new sensor can distinguish infectious viruses from noninfectious ones thanks to selective DNA fragments and sensitive nanopore technology.

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

The breakthrough has the potential to aid in medical diagnoses and, specifically, those related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
