The research supports that maternally acquired antibodies for one virus can assist infection by the other by a process unique to flaviviruses. Read More
Biophysicists discover how small populations of bacteria survive treatment
03-28-2018"We showed that by tuning the growth and death rate of bacterial cells, you can clear small populations of even antibiotic-resistant bacteria using low antibiotic concentrations," says biophysicist and MMG faculty member Minsu Kim. His lab conducted experiments with E. coli bacteria. Read More
