A University of Pennsylvania research team led by Spaniard César de la Fuente is using artificial intelligence to bring extinct human biological material back from the dead

Researchers led by microbiologist Jarrod Smith from the University of Oregon have unveiled how beneficial gut bacteria actively sense and respond to the mucus lining of the gut. This newfound insight sheds light on the delicate balance of the gut microbiome and its implications for health.

New findings point to possible mechanisms behind intestinal conditions like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

When it comes to gut health, it doesn't just matter who's invited to the party, but how they behave.

Without that ability, UO researchers say, the bacteria can end up causing inflammation

Scientists have identified a potential drug target for multiple mosquito-transmitted viruses, such as dengue and Zika, shedding light on how these viruses manipulate host cells to enhance their own reproduction.

Researchers have found a new way to tackle infectious mosquito-born viruses, such as dengue and Zika. A study published in the journal Cell Host and Microbe shows how viruses take control of host cells to promote their own reproduction. By understanding how viruses hijack cells, researchers can begin to develop new therapies for a range of mosquito-transmitted pathogens that currently have no known treatment or only limited options.

New Cleveland Clinic research shows how mosquito-transmitted viruses – like Zika, West Nile, Yellow Fever and dengue viruses – hijack host cells to promote their own replication and infection.

Microbe-fighting molecules that once existed in Neanderthals and Denisovans have been re-created in the lab and tested in mice
