AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine candidate developed by researchers from Oxford University will likely provide protection against the disease for one year, the British drug maker's CEO told Belgian radio station Bel RTL on Tuesday.
Sushant Singh Rajput, 34, Bollywood actor, was found dead at his Mumbai Bandra apartment on Saturday, initial police observation says that the actor committed suicide.
Researchers are investigating how coronaviruses would affect cells upon entry into the bat host in the nasal passages, to explain why symptomatic disease does not occur.
Vaccine design is still an empirical, trial and error process and a preventive against COVID-19 could be at least a year away, say scientists as information on developments in therapeutics to combat the infection flows in a steady trickle from across the world.
Scientists have discovered antibodies in the blood of recovered COVID-19 patients that provide powerful protection against SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes the disease, when tested in animals and human cell cultures.
India will witness a solar eclipse on June 21 and it will be annular in some parts of the country, where skygazers will get an opportunity to observe the "ring of fire" during the phenomenon, an official said on Monday. However, for most parts of the country, the eclipse will be partial.
An international satellite that will collect the most accurate data yet on sea levels around the world, a key indicator of how Earth's warming climate is affecting the oceans, weather and coastlines, has completed all the tests ahead of its scheduled launch in November.
The solar eclipse of the year is scheduled on June 12 and this will be an annular eclipse that will take place for over 6 hours. During the annular solar eclipse, the Moon is farthest from the Earth and comes in between the Sun and the Earth.
The last seven Mays, from 2014 to 2020, have been the seven warmest Mays on record. This past spring was the second hottest on record, behind 2016. And this year so far is the second hottest five-month start of a year.
Analysing thousands of recordings of seismic waves, or sound waves travelling through the Earth, scientists have detected widespread, heterogenous structures -- areas of unusually dense, hot rock -- at the core-mantle boundary than previously known.
Researchers in the US are looking at the possibility of using tuberculosis and polio vaccines in providing protection from the deadly coronavirus, according to a media report.
The team of researchers at the University of Georgia (UGA) in the US noted that the SARS-CoV-2 protein PLpro is essential for the replication and the ability of the virus to suppress host immune function.
The study, published in the journal Science Immunology, describes a new blood test which pinpoints the immune system molecules called antibodies in infected individuals that specifically target a unique piece of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2''s spike protein.
Testing people for COVID-19 too early in the course of infection may result in a false negative diagnosis, even though they may eventually test positive for the virus, according to a study which says it is best performed three days after the symptoms appear
Using data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft, scientists have discovered that Saturn's moon Titan is drifting a hundred times faster than previously understood -- about 11 centimeters per year.
Researchers in the US have identified regions of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) to target with a vaccine, by harnessing tools used for the development of cancer immunotherapies.
A study by Queen's University in Belfast, Northern Ireland has revealed that Covid-19 infection makes a patient susceptible to developing bacterial infections. This, in turn, may increase the risk of death in a patient.
"Haidou-1" set the record by submerging under the Pacific Ocean surface of the Mariana Trench, the deepest area in the world.
Scientists have discovered a massive exoplanet that orbits a star located some 3,000 light-years away from us and it may be potentially habitable.
