Cancer research has long looked at bacteria and viruses as separate tools for therapy. Now, researchers are showing that the two can actually work better together. A team of scientists has built a new ...

As antibiotic resistance grows, scientists are turning to bacteriophages, viruses that target harmful bacteria without wiping out beneficial microbes.

A newly discovered virus hiding inside common gut bacteria may be linked to colorectal cancer, according to new research. Scientists in Denmark found that colorectal cancer patients were about twice ...

La Trobe scientists have made a pivotal discovery in the fight against dangerous drug-resistant bacteria, as the University ...

The microbial arms race, in which bacteria battle with each other, viruses, and other microorganisms for space and nutrients, has been ongoing for ages. There are viruses known as bacteriophages that ...

While largely unnoticed, phages do not harm humans. On the contrary, these viruses are gaining increasing popularity as biomedicines to eradicate pathogenic bacteria, especially those associated with ...

If it were possible to tell the signs your body is fighting a bacterial infection from those of a viral infection, it would be easier to pinpoint the treatment you need if your symptoms aren't getting ...
