What is "virology"?
Virology is the branch of science that focuses on the study of viruses, their structure, function, classification, and interactions with the organisms they infect. Virologists, experts in this field, investigate various aspects of viruses, including how they infect cells, reproduce, and cause diseases. They use a range of techniques, such as studying molecules, genetics, and using powerful microscopes, to understand the biology of viruses and develop strategies for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of viral infections. Virology plays a crucial role in public health, infectious disease control, and the development of vaccines and antiviral drugs to combat viral diseases.
