New research reveals that boosting innate immunity may prevent drug-resistant bacterial infections and flu, reducing reliance on antibiotics and antivirals.

The innate immune system serves as the body's first line of defence, rapidly detecting and responding to external pathogens and internal damage. Recent advances in the field have highlighted the ...
