Viruses have a new enemy: an incredible protozoan who is fond of them, and will totally change our view of the carbon cycle
After much research, the expected result seems to arrive: the LED just developed in Japan is safe for us, relentless for germs, and 10 times more powerful than before.
An engineered oncolytic virus can affect cancer cells and make them more visible and vulnerable to the immune system.
A new vaccine against the Epstein Barr virus (EBV) will soon be tested in humans. If it works, it will protect against mononucleosis and perhaps multiple sclerosis (MS).
WHO notes admit the possibility of an adenovirus as the cause of the global outbreak of acute hepatitis in children.
It's called Molnupiravir and for days we've been talking about nothing other than this antiviral that can help us deal a perhaps decisive blow to Covid. But how does it work?
A bus shelter can accommodate much more, and contribute to a concrete change in cities.
A change of perspective like the one that led us to build sewers and control the quality of food: against new viruses and upcoming pandemics we need to dominate the air in closed places.
The fight against Covid-19 continues. We had a vaccine ready in a flash, but we're not out of it yet. On the horizon, CalTech's universal vaccine. Here's where we are.
A new mutation of the coronavirus is being transmitted from minks to humans in Denmark. It may compromise the development of vaccines against Covid-19
School starts again in Italy, between difficulties and hopes. The future also means rethinking school buildings: how could the ideal post Covid school be?
Italy (re)closes the discos and the longed-for normality recedes. The question, today more than ever, is: when will the coronavirus pass? The latest estimates come from the USA.
Tirana Riverside, the first coronavirus-resistant district designed by Boeri, shows an insight into how we should redesign future cities regardless of the virus, simply to live better.
Properly engineered adenoviruses can fight cancer by killing cancer cells. Important results of a Japanese research.
A playground that allows interaction and respects health rules. A difficult challenge, to which two German designers responded with a concept: Rimbin
A rigorous Canadian study overturns all the precedents: neither climate nor latitude affect the spread of the coronavirus.
A nasal spray with substances being studied to treat HIV could stop the coronavirus from replicating at its entry points into the body: the nose and mouth.
The blockade of world transport has allowed researchers to do the largest ever study on smog: it will help us to draw a future without a car.
Many live events have been moved to a digital version. This change in approach has led everyone to reconsider how large-scale audiences are reached. Here are some ways to rethink virtual events in the time of the coronavirus.
Covid-19 could be the most bitter medicine that in the end, after (much) suffering, perhaps it will give us a better world. Here because.
