Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), the first human oncovirus discovered in 1964, has become a focal point in virology, immunology, and oncology because of its unique biological characteristics and significant role in human diseases. As we commemorate the 60th anniversary of EBV's discovery, it is an opportune moment to reflect on the major advancements in our understanding of this complex virus. In this review, we highlight key milestones in EBV research, including its virion structure and life cycle, interactions with the host immune system, association with EBV-associated diseases, and targeted intervention strategies.

Bacteria with the simplest system for solar energy absorption and conversion use various types of light-harvesting complexes for these purposes. Light-harvesting complex 2 (LH2), an important component of the bacterial photosynthetic apparatus, has been structurally well characterized among purple non-sulfur bacteria. In contrast, so far only one high-resolution LH2 structure from sulfur bacteria is known.

Search for CP-Violating Neutrino Nonstandard Interactions with the NOvA Experiment.

Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Batavia, Illinois 60510, USA.

This Letter reports a search for charge-parity (CP) symmetry violating nonstandard interactions (NSI) of neutrinos with matter using the NOvA Experiment, and examines their effects on the determination of the standard oscillation parameters. Data from ν_{μ}(ν[over ¯]_{μ})→ν_{μ}(ν[over ¯]_{μ}) and ν_{μ}(ν[over ¯]_{μ})→ν_{e}(ν[over ¯]_{e}) oscillation channels are used to measure the effect of the NSI parameters ϵ_{eμ} and ϵ_{eτ}. With 90% CL the magnitudes of the NSI couplings are constrained to be |ϵ_{eμ}|≲0.

This year, 2024, marks the 60th anniversary of the Declaration of Helsinki, with the latest revision adopted by the World Medical Association (WMA) in October 2024. The 2024 Declaration of Helsinki is a statement document of ethical principles for research involving humans, human data, and human cells and tissues. Revising the 2013 Declaration of Helsinki document was undertaken over more than two years with international collaboration to enhance the inclusivity of medical research, protect the rights of research study participants, and address contemporary research challenges such as global health emergencies and data privacy.
