An AI model trained on large amounts of genetic data can predict whether bacteria will become antibiotic-resistant. The new study shows that antibiotic resistance is more easily transmitted between ...
Bacteria that rarely tumble are likely to get trapped by obstacles, slowing dispersion. Bacteria that tumble frequently often “retrace their steps,” also slowing dispersion. Dispersion is maximized by ...
Some things just go together in your belly: peanut butter and jelly, salt and pepper, bacteria and bacteria-eating viruses. For the bacterial species that inhabit your gut, there's a frenzy of viruses ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how bacteria share genes—including those that spread antibiotic resistance.

Research has shed important new light on the enemies-turned-allies that allow bacteria to exchange genes, including those ...
A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...
Programmable cell‑like particles seek out drug‑resistant bacteria, inject lethal payloads, and spare beneficial microbes.
