Filoviruses—such as Ebola and Marburg viruses—can cause hemorrhagic fevers with up to 90% lethality. Not only that, but there are very few tools (vaccines or drugs) to combat them. Now, scientists at ...

Using a method to observe how the Ebola virus fuses with human cells on the microscopic level in real-time for the first time, researchers from the American Society of Microbiology have identified key ...

Scientists recently published findings indicating that Ebola virus creates and uses intercellular tunnels to move from cell to cell and evade treatments. Understanding how viruses travel once inside ...

The model on the left shows how the Ebola virus stalk has a compact conformation, which blocks the site where mAb 3A6 would bind. The model on the right shows how this portion of the stalk can adopt ...

A few months into his postdoctoral research at Baylor College of Medicine in 2021, Rafael Michita made a curious observation.

Kent researchers have identified how few mutations it can take for Ebolaviruses to adapt to affect previously resistant species. Ebola is one of the world's most virulent diseases, though rodent ...

Six years before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, an Ebola outbreak in West Africa had people fearing the possibility of a global outbreak. This was the first time many had ever heard of the virus, ...
