New computational modeling of avian influenza variants' immunoprotein interactions—developed by a research team at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte—reveals the H5N1 influenza virus is ...

H5N1 influenza is evolving rapidly, weakening the effectiveness of existing antibodies and increasing its potential threat to ...

The team tested the device using aerosolized inactivated viruses to evaluate the performance of the sensor unit. The machine sampled the air continuously, providing a readout every 5 min, and ...
