Diese Woche gehts bei viroLOGISCH um das humane Zytomegalievirus (CMV). Mit dem sind wir fast alle infiziert und es kann in manchen Fällen ziemlichen Schaden anrichten.

What if a vaccine could help treat cancer?

In our latest episode of Behind the Genes, we explore how cancer vaccines are being developed to help the immune system recognise and target cancer cells.

Why is there a Nobel Prize? It’s all because of Alfred Nobel.

The Nobel Prize was set up when businessman and entrepreneur Alfred Nobel died and left most of his fortune to the establishment of prizes in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and peace. His will stated that the prizes should be awarded to “those who, during the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind.”

Our immune system is an evolutionary masterpiece. Every day it protects us from the thousands of different viruses, bacteria and other microbes that attempt to invade our bodies. Without a functioning immune system, we would not survive.

One of the immune system’s marvels is its ability to identify pathogens and differentiate them from the body’s own cells. The microbes that threaten our health do not wear a uniform – they all have different appearances. Many have also developed similarities to human cells, as a form of camouflage. So how does the immune system keep track of what to attack and what to protect? Why doesn’t the immune system attack our bodies more frequently?

Researchers long believed they knew the answer to these questions: that immune cells mature through a process called central immune tolerance (see image). However, our immune system turned out to be more complex than they believed.

Mary Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell and Shimon Sakaguchi were awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning peripheral immune tolerance. What discovery will be awarded this year?

🇯🇵 Sismo de magnitud 6.0 en Japón

Un sismo de magnitud 6.0 se registró este domingo 23 de agosto en la zona marítima limítrofe entre las islas de Honshu y Hokkaido, muy próximo al sur de Erimo, Hokkaido, Japón.

De acuerdo con el USGS, el epicentro se localizó aproximadamente a 33 km al sur-suroeste de Honchō (costa noreste de Honshu), con una profundidad de 42.9 km.

Hasta el momento, se mantiene el monitoreo de posibles afectaciones.

On Fridays, laureates Konstantin Novoselov and Andre Geim used to explore things they had no time for as part of their research projects. One Friday they started experimenting with graphite and sticky tape and a new material was born – graphene.

Dormir menos durante una sola noche puede aumentar la somnolencia y reducir la capacidad de mantener la atención de forma estable. Un metaanálisis de 44 estudios en adultos, con oportunidades de sueño de 2 a 6 horas, encontró tiempos de reacción más lentos y más lapsos 👇
