An unassuming brown bovine from the south of Brazil has made history as the first transgenic cow capable of producing human insulin in her milk. The advancement could herald a new era in insulin ...

The prospect of an outbreak of avian influenza among dairy cattle triggering a pandemic in humans is one step closer than scientists thought. New research shows that cow udder cells can be infected ...

Cows have entry portals for both human and bird flus. This new finding may mean that cattle could host both types of flus at once. The two viruses could then swap parts to create a new type of ...

Could cow milk be the new cure for diabetes? Researchers have genetically modified a brown cow in Brazil to produce human insulin in its milk, which marks a breakthrough in diabetes treatment research ...

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign animal scientist Matt Wheeler, pictured, helped develop the first transgenic cow to produce human insulin in her milk. An unassuming brown bovine from the south ...
