A new study tracks the fluctuations in viral load in people recently infected with SARS-CoV-2.

22 Mar 2022

WVU researcher unravels role of STAT5 protein in the development of multiple sclerosis

A human immune system is a lot like the board game Mouse Trap: it's a Rube Goldberg system of interacting parts. Only instead of a falling ball causing a tiny diver to leap into a tub - which, in turn, springs a trap on some plastic mice - proteins trigger other proteins to activate immune cells and direct them toward germs.
