In the quiet, methodical environment of a microbiology laboratory at West Virginia University, a discovery has been made that bridges a gap in scientific history spanning nearly a century. Corinne Hazel, an environmental microbiology student and Goldwater Scholar, has identified a previously unknown species of fungus that serves as the biological engine behind the potent […]
A laboratory-designed molecule, developed and rigorously tested by a collaborative team of scientists at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC, may offer a transformative path forward in the treatment of glioblastoma. This aggressive and notoriously resilient form of brain cancer has long frustrated the medical community due to its tendency to return even after […]
In the decades since the HIV/AIDS epidemic first emerged as a global health crisis, the medical community has achieved what was once thought impossible: transforming a certain death sentence into a manageable chronic condition. Today, through the rigorous application of antiretroviral therapy (ART), many individuals living with HIV can achieve an "undetectable" viral load, allowing […]
In a laboratory at West Virginia University, a discovery has been made that bridges a decades-old gap in botanical and pharmaceutical science. Corinne Hazel, an environmental microbiology student and Goldwater Scholar, has identified a long-sought-after fungus that resides within morning glory plants—an organism that produces the natural precursors to the semisynthetic drug LSD. The discovery […]
