Michael Worobey's lab has circled the globe for clues to how killer viruses jump into humans and then spread worldwide. Think "CSI" for HIV: Researchers have collected traces of viral DNA from ...

How the evolution of a single gene allowed the plague to adapt, prolonging the pandemics
Scientists have documented the way a single gene in the bacterium that causes bubonic plague, Yersinia pestis, allowed it to survive hundreds of years by adjusting its virulence and the length of time ...
Increased capabilities for genomic surveillance have offered new insights into global viral evolution. Seasonal flu showed a 'remarkable' bounce back to pre-pandemic levels once international air ...

“The current study is the only one I know of that has documented actual adaptive evolution associated with the pandemic — and again it’s really notable that there were two pulses of evolution here, ...
