More clues about coronavirus replication in humans and animals have been uncovered by researchers at Pirbright. This research fills in important knowledge gaps that could help to control disease caused by a range of coronaviruses in the future. When we think of coronaviruses, we think of SARS-CoV-2…

Pirbright scientists have edited and authored chapters in a new book titled ‘Coronaviruses’ which provides detailed information about the Coronaviridae family as well as laboratory techniques currently used in the field to study them. Whilst coronaviruses have long been known to cause devasting…

A new study from scientists at The Pirbright Institute and collaborators at the University of Surrey provides evidence that infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) can regulate the signals involved in the stress response, which would otherwise prevent a virus from making new copies of itself. Their…

A recent study carried out at The Pirbright Institute has uncovered the sites within the cell where porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) makes new copies of itself during replication. Using electron microscopy, Pirbright scientists demonstrated that the virus creates replication organelles that are…

Next week two consecutive meetings will focus on research into avian diseases that affect both food security and human health. The Focused Meeting on Molecular Biology and Pathogenesis of Avian Viruses and XV Avian Immunology Research Group (AIRG) meeting will take place on the 3-4 and 5-7 September…

Thursday 8 March is a day to celebrate women’s social, economic, cultural and political achievements. International Women’s Day (IWD) has been formerly celebrated on 8 March since 1977, when the United Nations General Assembly invited member states to celebrate the day as the UN day for women’s…
