A new strain of avian flu, H5N1, has spread to dairy cows and domestic cats in the U.S., with a dairy worker in Nevada ...

State health officials are seeking to confirm the vaccine status of the four self-reported cases, but no mutations of the ...

In two of the eight patients in this group, while HBV DNA became quantifiable, the emergence of YMDD mutation was observed in the sera sample only at the end of VBTH, when the viral DNA level ...

An emerging strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza has spilled over from wild birds to dairy cows in the state of Nevada ...

A virus originally found in animals, mpox – which causes the disease of the same name – is now circulating in humans.

It took 20 months for this mutation to be observed in the BA.2.86 variant ... This work highlights the importance of advanced modeling tools in studying complex biological interactions and their ...

In response to these challenges, this study introduces a novel quantum-enhanced LSTM (QLSTM) model designed to predict genetic mutations, specifically focusing on viral protein sequences. The QLSTM ...

Flu viruses are constantly evolving due to genetic mutations and reassortments among different strains. Genetic reassortment occurs when an organism is simultaneously infected by multiple flu strains.

After a different strain of bird flu was recently found in cattle for the first time, experts reveal what this means in our ...

Even more controversially, his research suggests that mutations in the virus—and perhaps all life—are not random, potentially challenging the foundations of the theory of evolution.

A virus originally found in animals, mpox -- which causes the disease of the same name -- is now circulating in humans. Since 2022, it has been the cause of major epidemics spreading outside endemic ...
