Research Identifies Key Antibodies for Development of Broadly Protective Norovirus Vaccine Researchers identify key antibodies that bring us one step closer to treatment and vaccine for norovirus, a prevalent and difficult virus to prevent.

Norovirus, a leading cause of gastroenteritis worldwide, infects more than 700 million people annually. Developing an effective vaccine has proven challenging. A new study shares how researchers are closing in on a promising antibody, VX22, that has targeted a previously unknown weak spot.

Organic electrolyte cations promote non-aqueous CO2 reduction by mediating interfacial electric fields - Nature Catalysis Electrolyte cations have been shown to have a strong impact on reactivity in electrocatalytic CO2 reduction. However, most studies have been performed in an aqueous environment. Here the effect of var...

Excited to see this research published! From my @texasche.bsky.social colleague @joaquinresasco.bsky.social and his team about how dissolved ions restructure the electric field at the electrode-electrolyte interface to modulate electrocatalytic reactions. ChemSky 🧪
