An intranasal vaccine using an RNA virus for gene delivery protects against fatal MERS coronavirus infections in mice. Researcher are now applying this knowledge to tackle SARS-Cov2.

New research led by hearing scientists at Oregon Health & Science University suggests an avenue to treat and prevent intractable genetic disorders before birth.

A team has found that creating new blood vessels for tumors in lymph nodes is a different process than for tumors in other parts of the body. This could pave the way to more effective treatment targets to slow tumor growth for lymphoma patients.

Scientists from Sanford Burnham Prebys have discovered a novel way to kill pancreatic cancer cells by disrupting their pH equilibrium.

The movements of cell muscles in the form of tiny filaments of proteins have been visualized at unprecedented detail by University of Warwick scientists.

Scientists have developed a suite of more than 200 new genetic techniques for using marine microbes to investigate a host of questions in biology.

A multidisciplinary team at The University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston working to combat the COVID-19 virus has a system that will unlock researchers’ ability to more quickly develop and evaluate developing vaccines, diagnose infected patients and explore whether or how the virus has evolved.

In the future, treating a concussion could be as simple as cooling the brain. That's according to research conducted by University of Wisconsin-Madison engineers, whose findings support the treatment approach at the cellular level.

Researchers have found that the mother cell determines if its daughter cells will divide. The finding sheds new light on the cell cycle using modern imaging technologies, and could have implications for cancer drug therapy treatments.

A new study has shown that gliomas alter astrocyte function, which normally prevents the brain from being flooded with excess excitatory chemicals. This could contribute to the seizures experienced by some brain cancer patients.
