Faster and more effective ways to treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a bacterium identified by the World Health Organization (WHO) ...

"With this model, we have a method for determining how bacteria will spread, even when they encounter obstacles along the way." Bacteria aren't the most efficient or predictable organisms when it ...

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 ...

Biotechnology has long relied on a handful of model microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, whose genetics and physiology are ...

Fast identification of bacteria is important in health care, food safety, environmental monitoring and infection control. One ...

Drug-resistant infections - especially from deadly bacteria like tuberculosis and staph - are a growing global health crisis. These infections are harder to treat, often require more expensive or ...

Researchers identify the antibiotic concentration where bacteria may be most likely to develop dangerous drug resistance.

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 ...
