The Spaces Between is an observational poem written by Liz Lochhead in 2020, when much of the world was in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic. In this poem, the speaker witnesses the seemingly ...

For many people, COVID was not a short illness that faded with time. Months later, they still report fatigue, brain fog, ...

An international research team has determined the first high-resolution structures of the herpes simplex virus origin-binding protein (OBP), a critical component of viral DNA replication that has ...

This short art tutorial demonstrates how to draw the basic structure and proportions of an anime-style female face. It covers the initial head circle, facial guidelines, and how to shape a slimmer ...

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — As summer kicks into full gear and people are spending more time outside, there’s one thing on many people’s minds — ticks. Tick season is starting earlier and lasting longer, ...

Squares represent hosts, with the number inside indicating the initial amount of viruses. Channels connecting hosts are shown as double lines, while the novel superchannels are depicted as triple ...

Nipah virus is a zoonotic virus harbored by fruit bats. It can be transmitted to pigs and humans, infect people through contaminated food, and can travel directly from person to person via droplets.

Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in viral ...

Scientists at Harvard Medical School and Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine have mapped a critical component of the Nipah virus, a highly lethal bat-borne pathogen that has ...
