Virology is the study of viruses, microscopic infectious agents that invade living cells to replicate. This field explores viral structure, classification, genetics, and the complex interactions between viruses and their hosts. Virologists investigate how viruses cause disease, evolve, and spread, as well as how the immune system responds to viral infections. Research in virology is central to developing vaccines, antiviral therapies, and public health strategies against outbreaks such as influenza, HIV, and emerging threats like SARS-CoV-2 and H5N1. This page presents the latest research and discoveries in the dynamic field of virology.
