MIT researchers have devised a way to computationally model viral escape, using models that were originally developed to model language. The model can predict which sections of viral surface ...

The machine learning model analyzes host characteristics and virus genetics to identify potential animal reservoirs and geographic areas where new outbreaks are more likely to occur.

The biomedical visualization studio Visual Science has created the most detailed and scientifically accurate 3D model of the full SARS-CoV-2 virus at atomic resolution.

The model can predict one of 11 likely animal groups, such as rodents or primates, but cannot identify a specific species as the likely virus carrier.

UCLA researchers have created miniature stem cell-based organoid models of human lungs, hearts and brains to study how ...

West Nile virus (WNV) has been the dominant cause of mosquito-borne illness in the United States since its introduction into ...

New evidence has been published in the journal Science Advances, adding weight to the link between Alzheimer’s disease and the common herpes virus. The Tufts University study, using a 3D ...

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 ...

The way we talk about viruses can shift scientific research and our understanding of evolution.

A study using lab-made models of the brain suggests that a herpes virus may be a key link between concussions and dementia risk.

Long before Westeros, fantasy and science-fiction author George R.R. Martin had a hand in creating Wild Cards, a shared science-fiction universe involving a pathogen called the "Wild Card" virus ...

MIT researchers have devised a way to computationally model viral escape, using models that were originally developed to model language. The model can predict which sections of viral surface ...
