Influenza viruses are among the most likely triggers of future pandemics. A research team from the Helmholtz Center for Infection Research (HZI) and the Medical Center—University of Freiburg has ...
Scientists engaged over 1,000 volunteers through an online project to help analyze viruses in cells. Participants clicked on ...
As flu season approaches, it’s a good time to look back at the invention that made virology possible. Viruses weren’t well understood until somewhat recently, in part because they couldn’t be seen ...
Despite their name, giant viruses are difficult to visualize in detail. They are too big for conventional electron microscopy, yet too small for optical microscopy used to study larger specimens. Now, ...
Researchers have captured the first real-time footage of viruses on the move, right before they hijack a cell. When Courtney "CJ" Johnson pulls up footage from her Ph.D. dissertation, it's like she's ...

A new way to see viruses in action: Super-resolution microscopy provides a nano-scale look
A new, nano-scale look at how the SARS-CoV-2 virus replicates in cells may offer greater precision in drug development, a Stanford University team reports in Nature Communications. Using advanced ...
Current calibration methods rely on artificially constructed DNA structures or specific cellular features, each with significant drawbacks. DNA-based rulers require complex chemical synthesis and only ...
Influenza viruses are among the most likely triggers of future pandemics. A research team has developed a method that can be used to study the interaction of viruses with host cells in unprecedented ...
Viruses have no metabolism of their own and must therefore infect host cells in order to replicate. Contact between the virus and the cell surface is a crucial first step, which can also prevent ...
