Innovative research into the gene-editing tool targets influenza’s ability to replicate—stopping it in its tracks.

Scientists in Japan have discovered a genetic "silencer" within the HTLV-1 virus that helps it stay hidden in the body, evading the immune system for decades. This silencer element essentially turns ...

Subclade K has become the dominant form of flu and is slightly different from the virus targeted by this year’s flu vaccine.

Marek’s disease can be pervasive in chicken houses. Chickens infected by this highly contagious viral disease often develop tumors, become paralyzed and die. They can shed the virus through their skin ...

Human protection against bird flu may be easier than scientists previously thought, thanks to new findings about the core genetic makeup of the virus and one particular T cell that all of us have in ...

A new study in Nature shows that delivering a single injection of gene therapy at birth may offer years-long protection against HIV, tapping into a critical window in early life that could reshape the ...

The RSV vaccine protects against RSV (respiratory syncytial virus), a common seasonal virus that infects the nose, throat, and lungs. While RSV typically causes mild, cold-like symptoms, it can lead ...

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Scientists in Singapore say they have developed a way to track genetic changes that speeds testing of vaccines against a coronavirus that has killed more than 16,000 people ...

What Is the RSV Vaccine? An RSV vaccine is a shot that protects you from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), which infects your lungs and respiratory tract. Most cases of RSV are mild, but they can be ...
