NewsMeningococcal B vaccine linked to lower gonorrhoea risk
The meningococcal B vaccine could provide protection against more than one disease, with new research linking it to a significant reduction in the risk of gonorrhoea in young people in Australia.
-
NewsNew vaccine strategy protects against chikungunya and could become a platform for combating other diseases
Researchers created a genetically modified version of the Chikungunya virus that replicates only once, yet still trains the immune system to defend itself without causing disease.
-
NewsHow do vaccine conspiracy beliefs develop?
Researchers analyzed five years of longitudinal panel survey data collected between 2020 and 2024 and examined how vaccine-related conspiracy beliefs were associated with media skepticism during the COVID-19 pandemic.
-
NewsHow does a deadly chicken virus escape vaccines designed to slow it?
A new genome-wide study of the Marek’s disease virus identified 10 regions in the genome associated with what makes certain strains more virulent, and could inform next-generation vaccines.
-
NewsHighly reliable LFIA based on selenium nanoparticle reveals long-term real-world dynamics of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2
SDS modified selenium nanoparticles enable reliable lateral flow immunoassay, showing that neurological and hematological patients lose vaccine induced immunity much faster.
-
NewsElephant vaccine shows first signs of protection against deadly virus
Scientists have published the first peer-reviewed evidence that an experimental mRNA vaccine may help protect young Asian elephants from elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus, one of the deadliest diseases facing the species.
-
NewsIs the licensed Zaire ebolavirus vaccine suitable to combat the current Bundibugyo ebolavirus outbreak?
Researchers provide evidence of possible cross-protection through an already licensed Zaire ebolavirus vaccine.
-
NewsCOVID-19 vaccines remain effective despite helminth-induced immune modulation
In a preclinical study, researchers have found that mRNA- and protein-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines effectively protected Schistosoma-infected mice against the virus, despite the mice’s distinct immune response profiles.
-
NewsExpanding uses for bioengineered bacterial spores
Fused to the outer layer of bacterial spores, things like enzymes, biosensors, and drugs are easily stored under even extreme conditions.
-
NewsAntivaccine legislation is rising rapidly in US states, driven primarily by GOP push
A new study revealed that Republican lawmakers were responsible for 86 per cent of antivaccine bills introduced across state legislatures after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, raising concerns about public health.
-
News COVID-19 booster strategies provide lasting immunity
Smaller doses of COVID-19 booster vaccines can provide long-lasting immunity, helping to reduce costs and improve access to vaccination, according to research. The findings could also inform vaccine dosing and options during future pandemics.
-
NewsGenetically engineered Bifidobacterium shows potential for oral delivery of cancer vaccines
A novel oral vaccine platform using genetically engineered Bifidobacterium could enhance anti-tumor immunity. In an exploratory phase I clinical study, the vaccine was well tolerated and generated immunologic and clinical findings that warrant further investigation.
-
NewsNew study advances dry mRNA vaccine patch design
New research could help make future mRNA vaccines easier to store and distribute. The study identified conditions that help protect the particles that carry mRNA in dry vaccine patches, offering practical guidance for future patch design.
-
NewsTuberculosis vaccine changes brain’s immune environment and Alzheimer’s biomarkers in older adults
A study shows that BCG vaccines can alter immune responses and amyloid-beta biomarkers in non-Alzheimer’s participants, which may help explain previously observed links to lower disease risk.
-
NewsNew HIV vaccine shows unprecedented success in preclinical study
Scientists have developed an HIV vaccine that trains immune cells to see past HIV’s defenses. This HIV vaccine works by prompting the body’s immune system to make substantial numbers of rarely seen “broadly neutralizing” antibodies.

NewsKorea University College of Medicine Vaccine Innovation Center selected to lead KDCA-funded hantavirus vaccine development project
The Vaccine Innovation Center at Korea University College of Medicine has been selected by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) as the lead institution for a national hantavirus vaccine development project.

ArticleCOVID-19 vaccine boosters may help protect against future animal coronaviruses
COVID-19 vaccine boosters not only protect against SARS‑CoV‑2 but may also help protect against some future coronaviruses that risk spreading from animals to humans, researchers have shown.
-
NewsStudy: Three-in-one vaccine shows promise against ‘tripledemic’
A single-shot vaccine in development could protect against flu, COVID-19 and RSV simultaneously. In a study, researchers found that their three-in-one vaccine triggered protective immunity against all three respiratory diseases in mice, ferrets and cotton rats.
-
NewsBillions of doses later: Global review confirms mRNA vaccines are safe, effective and full of promise
A comprehensive review brings together global evidence to strengthen public trust and counter misinformation as mRNA vaccines expand to prevent and treat more diseases.
