Researchers from the University of Glasgow developed AutoEnricher, a microfluidic and machine learning system that diagnoses ...

Pathogens can create sticky situations. When microbes invade the body to cause an infection, often one of their first lines ...

During infection, reversible switch permits flexible formation of memory T cells, long-lived blood cells that can remember pathogen encounters and respond upon reinfection. Unexpected findings have ...

Researchers at the University of Glasgow have developed a new diagnostic platform for identifying microbial infections in as ...

Antimicrobial resistance and ecological disruption caused by broad-spectrum disinfectants have created an urgent need for precision strategies that remove harmful bacteria without damaging beneficial ...

Researchers say discoveries could expand the CRISPR toolbox and lead to more efficient, rapid diagnostic tools for detecting COVID-19, influenza, and RSV.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a crucial organelle present in eukaryotic cells, including human cells. The ER plays a vital part in making sure proteins are properly constructed, and that they get ...

Kathleen Abadie was funded by a NSF (National Science Foundation) Graduate Research Fellowships. She performed this research in affiliation with the University of Washington Department of ...

Drugs that act against bacteria are mainly assessed based on how well they inhibit bacterial growth under laboratory ...

When our body is attacked by a pathogen, the pathogen has to find ways to evade our immune system and invade our cells to cause infection and illness. Reporting in Cell, researchers have now ...

Scientists have discovered that the most widely-used class of antifungals in the world cause pathogens to self-destruct. The research could help improve ways to protect food security and human lives.
