• Resumen

  • Zika, now sweeping the Americas, was declared a global health emergency earlier this year because of the suspected link between the virus and babies born with microencephaly. Ivan Konstantinov from Visual Science and his team used their knowledge of related viruses, such as dengue, West Nile and yellow fever, to create an image of a Zika particle. The team hopes to improve their model once they know how the virus's genome organizes itself inside the cell.
