At WIRED Health, immunologist Daniel Davis detailed the ways in which new technologies are enabling a better understanding of ...

There may be an evolutionary thread linking big brains, long lifespans and immune-system genes in mammals, a new study finds. An organism’s lifespan depends partly on its genes, but scientists have ...

Research finds that those vaccinated or previously infected with seasonal flu had special antibodies that help fight H5N1 ...

New study by Chinese scientists has shed more light on how humans age, particularly the immune system. More interestingly, they found a way to slow down the process. The immune cells are a key part of ...

A new method to keep human lymph node tissue alive and functioning outside the body for several days could give researchers a much clearer view of how our immune system responds to infections, ...

The immune system acts as a critical sentinel of organismal aging, integrating the sensing of physiological states with the execution of defense and clearance functions. Immunosenescence not only ...

Kate Markey, MBBS, PhD, has discovered a link between the intestinal microbiome and developing chronic graft-versus-host ...

An initiative partly funded by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in the UK has moved further towards its goal of producing a 'human cell atlas' (HCA) to map every cell type in the human body.

The immune system acts as a critical sentinel of organismal aging, integrating the sensing of physiological states with the execution of defense and clearance functions. Immunosenescence not only ...
