Three Husker students under the mentorship of Luwen Zhang, a leading University of Nebraska-Lincoln virologist, have achieved a rare feat for undergraduates. Vanessa Hubing, a junior biological ...

University of Oxford-led research finds low-dose rapamycin functions as a genomic protector in aging human immune cells, lowering DNA damage. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news ...

Researchers have developed a new method to recreate a robust and functional human immune system in mice using mononuclear cells from the cord blood. This new kind of mice, that count with most of the ...

A pioneering study has provided unprecedented insights into the immune response following pig-to-human kidney xenotransplantation. The findings, presented today at the ESOT Congress 2025, mark a ...

The research projects aim to create models that advance our understanding of immune system function and aging and have the potential to transform vaccine development. Bioengineer Ankur Singh works to ...

How does the same infection, say the flu or a cold, give some people mild symptoms and leave others suffering? Why do people develop autoimmune diseases? And will we ever be able to predict when—and ...

The Allen Institute for Immunology as a whole seeks to advance the fundamental understanding of the immune system by employing a full spectrum of -omics tools to understand the molecular pathways and ...
