Bacteriophage Particles Could Make Future COVID Vaccines Inhalable

Two approaches in development may lead to an inhalable COVID-19 vaccine that is scalable and can be transported and stored at room temperature.

One strategy employs modified bacteriophage particles that can be inhaled to deliver protection via the lungs to the immune system. The other delivers injectable adeno-associated virus-phage particles that directly encode pro... read more

Saturday Snippet: The Miracle of Purun Bhagat

"The Miracle of Purun Bhagat" is one of the stories in Rudyard Kipling's "The Second Jungle Book", better known for its (and its prequel's) tales of Mowgli, the human child raised by wolves, and his animal companions. I grew up on a steady diet of the Mowgli stories, and continue to love them to this day. "The Miracle of Purun Bhagat" has had extraordinarily wide appeal since it was first published in 1895. Even readers who dislike the rest of Kipling's work have found something to appreciate in this short story. I thought, in these troubled times, it might be a worthwhile r... read more
