    2026-03-24T15:52:00Z

    University of South Florida researchers have adapted fluorescent imaging to visualise the cell cycle of Toxoplasma gondii in real time, revealing an unusual branching growth pattern that enables rapid multiplication. The breakthrough could identify new therapeutic targets for toxoplasmosis, which affects one-third of the global population and has limited treatment options once chronic.
