By Vincent Racaniello

Vincent RacanielloVincent Racaniello selects several notable posts each week from molecular and cellular biology and virology. He blogs at virology blog.

  • The 2009 H1N1 influenza virus was isolated in May, yet the vaccine is just being distributed. Why did it take so long?
  • The experience of menopause is not fun. But could it be the result of human evolution?
  • Why do proteins in complex metazoans contain less tyrosine than their unicellular nephews?

I’ll be back next Friday with more selections.
