EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) image of a Borna disease virus, an RNA virus known for its association with depression, schizophrenia, and horse diseases. The intricate details captured in this image provide valuable insights into the structure and characteristics of this brain-infecting virus. The TEM technique used to capture this image allows scientists to visualize objects at an incredibly high resolution by passing electrons through thin sections of the specimen. In this case, it has enabled us to observe the unique features of the Borna disease virus with astonishing clarity. The distinct shape and arrangement of viral particles visible in this print highlight the complexity and sophistication of these microscopic entities. By studying such images, researchers gain a better understanding of how viruses interact with host cells and cause diseases. Borna disease is primarily found in horses but can also infect other animals as well as humans. Its connection to mental health disorders like depression and schizophrenia adds another layer of intrigue to its study. This print serves as a reminder that even invisible threats can have profound effects on our lives. Science Photo Library continues to be at the forefront of capturing visually stunning scientific images like this one, providing invaluable resources for researchers, educators, and enthusiasts alike who seek a deeper understanding of our world's complexities.
