With antibiotic resistance becoming widespread in urinary tract infections and continually increasing, physicians are often forced to blindly prescribe antibiotics without knowing their effectiveness ...

Be So Well launched a pathogen-focused immune reactivity screen that detects specific immune responses often missed in ...

Metagenomic sequencing can provide rapid and actionable antimicrobial resistance predictions to treat bloodstream infections much faster than conventional laboratory tests, and has the potential to ...

In a recent study published in The Lancet Microbe, researchers analyze the global incidences of laboratory-acquired infections (LAIs) and accidental pathogen escapes from 2000 to 2021 to identify ...

To cause an infection, pathogens have to get into our cells. So how do they do it? A new study has used lung organoids, which are small, simplified versions of human lungs, to learn more about the ...

Some pathogens hide inside human cells to enhance their survival. Researchers have uncovered a unique tactic certain bacteria use to spread in the body without being detected by the immune system. In ...

Infectious microbes have evolved sophisticated means to invade host cells, outwit the body’s defenses and cause disease. While researchers have tried to puzzle out the complicated interactions between ...

Researchers developed a CRISPR and single-molecule microarray test that quantifies Candida auris and detects antifungal ...

Balloon sampling has now confirmed that mosquitoes migrating high above West Africa often carry transmissible pathogens, a finding that could reshape how we track and manage vector-borne diseases.
