Researchers had been studying the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for decades without seeing evidence of an active virus within it -- until researchers not only found a virus in the alga but ...

This work presents a novel mathematical framework for analyzing the propagation dynamics of computer viruses by formulating a fractional-order model. The classical integer-order differential model of ...

A new predictive model developed at Washington State University could help scientists more efficiently identify the reservoirs of emerging zoonotic viruses and dangerous pathogens like Ebola that can ...

Given that influenza vaccine effectiveness depends on a good antigenic match between the vaccine and circulating viruses, it is important to assess the antigenic properties of newly emerging variants ...

The new predictive model helps to locate "reservoirs" of viruses located in animal populations, raising the risk of ...

UCLA researchers have created miniature stem cell-based organoid models of human lungs, hearts and brains to study how hantaviruses—rare but often deadly viruses spread by rodents—infect the body.

The atomic structure of the bacteriophage φTE, which kills plant pathogens, has been revealed for the first time, advancing the understanding of its infection mechanism. Okinawa Institute of Science ...

In the field of biomedicine and public health, continuous viral mutation and evolution may enable viruses to cross species barriers, infect non-natural hosts, and subsequently trigger human-to-human ...

Liver cancer is one of the world's deadliest cancers, and most cases are linked to chronic viral hepatitis. Yet scientists have lacked an animal model that faithfully recapitulates how the disease ...

Researchers had been studying the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii for decades without seeing evidence of an active virus within it—until a pair of Virginia Tech researchers waded into the ...
