Web model of influenza-host lifecycles will aid scientists in creating anti-viral drugs
A "starry sky" map linking the myriad interactions between the influenza virus and its human host will help guide researchers in creating new anti-viral drugs, say researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center. view more (2006-01-31)
Scientists find infection history must play key role in vaccine development
Under Strict Embargo for 00.01hrs GMT Monday 6 November 2000 The timing and design of vaccines used to immunise against lung infections may have to change in the light of research findings by Imperial College scientists (1). The research published today in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, shows for the first time that the previous... view more... (2000-11-03)

ASU scientist: Study of first wave of swine flu requires revised public health strategies
There is no way to know how the newest strain of the H1N1 influenza virus will behave in the future. But scientists, notably those working at the intersections of epidemiology, mathematics, modeling and statistics, are monitoring it closely to identify anomalies on its pattern of spread while evaluating ways of mitigating its impact. view more (2009-06-30)
UCSB researchers develop cross-protective vaccine
