In the ongoing battle against hospital-acquired infections and the global rise of "superbugs," researchers have turned to an unlikely source for inspiration: the extraordinary biomechanics of the flea. A collaborative study led by RMIT University in Australia has successfully harnessed the unique properties of resilin—the protein responsible for a flea’s remarkable jumping ability—to develop a […]
WASHINGTON — A contentious Capitol Hill hearing highlighted growing tensions over federal public health policy as Democratic lawmakers repeatedly challenged administration official Overton over unproven medical assertions made by the president, controversial vaccine recommendations, and the influence of corporate campaign contributions on federal regulatory decisions.
