Biologists have uncovered a new mode of communication inside cells that helps bacterial pathogens learn how to evade drugs.

Climate change is increasingly influencing the dynamics of waterborne pathogens by modifying hydrological regimes, water temperatures, and the frequency and ...

Invasive species, pathogens, and parasites can have serious ecological consequences for aquatic ecosystems and also put human health and economies at risk. Early detection of these biological threats ...

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 ...

Particles of plastic float in the ocean. Microplastics are able to carry pathogens from land to parts of the ocean they would normally never reach, a UC Davis study found. (Getty) Microplastics are a ...

Pathogen adaptation occurs when novel variants gain greater fitness in the current environment than their predecessors. Host immunity, whether vaccination- or infection-induced, could shape the ...

Bacteriophages, viruses that attack and destroy bacteria, are everywhere in the natural world where they play a vital role in regulating microbe populations in ways that are not yet well understood.

Microplastics are a pathway for pathogens on land to reach the ocean, with likely consequences for human and wildlife health, according to a new study. This study connects microplastic pollution in ...

A World Health Organization (WHO) study has listed the top endemic pathogens for which new vaccines are “urgently needed”. The study details the 17 pathogens that regularly cause diseases in ...
