Virophysics

Virophysics is the study of viruses. Viruses are tiny living things that can cause disease in people, animals, and plants. Viruses are too small to see without a microscope, but they can have a big impact on the world. Virophysics is the study of how viruses work and what they do. Scientists who study virophysics use special tools like microscopes and computers to help them learn how viruses work and how to protect us from them.
