An article written by Meghan May, Ph.D., associate professor of biomedical sciences in the 新香港六合彩资料鈥檚 College of Osteopathic Medicine, was recently published in Microbe, a publication from the American Society for Microbiology.
The article, titled 鈥淎nalyzing Evolvability To Anticipate New Pathogens,鈥 discusses why new diseases appear and whether scientists can predict what new diseases will come next. According to May, 鈥淔iguring out what comes next depends on understanding what makes infectious agents change to become more successful at infecting hosts, transmitting between hosts, and avoiding a host鈥檚 immune system.鈥
