Public health approaches to infectious disease

...DNA virus with a relatively stable genome, which does not generate variant strains; therefore, the same vaccine could be used everywhere. Humans are the only host – there is no reservoir of smallpox virus in other animals or in the natural environment. The transmission of the virus from infected to susceptible individuals is relatively infrequent – typically, a person...

In the night sky: Orion

...DNA is made from, those building blocks are present in comets. Could life have got going on earth if comets hadn’t delivered those building blocks to earth? We’re trying to explore that relationship as well, and that’s some of the really exciting stuff. My work is mainly laboratory based and also uses data from space missions. One of the other things that we need to...
