A bacterial defense system called SPARDA employs kamikaze-like tactics to protect cells and could be useful in future ...

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 ...

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 ...

A research team at the Hebrew University has shown that bacteria can survive antibiotic exposure via two distinct ...

Inflammatory gut bacteria that carry proteins structurally similar to myelin may trigger the development and progression of ...

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 ...

New study reveals that bacteria can survive antibiotic treatment through two fundamentally different "shutdown modes," not just the classic idea of dormancy.
