The International Space Station (ISS) is one of the most unique environments where life has ever existed, out in the low ...

The immune system's reaction to the common Epstein-Barr virus can ultimately damage the brain and contribute to multiple ...

The very high death toll amongst pigs infected with African Swine Fever virus (ASFv) in pigs could be very well related to ...

Our results provide mechanistic evidence that immune responses to EBV can directly damage the brain in MS,” said Olivia Thomas, PhD, assistant professor at the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at ...

Hepatitis E is a common disease worldwide, but it often remains undetected. “There’s no precise data on how often the infection affects the neurological system,” says Michelle Jagst. What is known is ...
