Mathematical Model to Predict COVID-19 Vaccine Efficacy

A team of researchers at the Bengaluru-based Indian Institute of Science (IISc) and Queensland Brain Institute (QBI) in Australia have addressed this question by developing a mathematical model that predicts how antibodies generated by COVID-19 vaccines confer protection against symptomatic infections. The team has published a report of their study in Nature Computational Science.

New Study Paves Way to Learn More About Stars and Neutrinos

Researchers say that neutrinos in supernovae, neutron stars, and in the early Universe may change flavor (type) collectively and unstably, due to neutrino-neutrino forward scattering. Neutrinos emitted by exploding stars can change their flavor via collective flavor (type) instability. Scientists have identified the ingredient for flavor instability which will have observable consequences for the observations made by telescopes and neutrino detectors.

India Steps in to Plug Global Wheat Shortfall Due to Ukraine War
