The bacteria-in-a-bottle thought experiment that explains why we're bad at seeing disaster coming
Albert Bartlett was born in Shanghai in 1923, worked on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos, got his PhD from Harvard, and spent his career as a physics professor at the University of Colorado. But he ...
Researchers in the Raman Lab at UW recently published a study discussing sending microbes into space at the International Space Station to evaluate how mutations induced by microgravity may impact ...
We have become much more aware of all of the surfaces we touch daily and what kinds of germs can be on them. The Microbiology Lab at the Medical College of Georgia conducted an experiment with ...
Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria that constantly “sense” their surroundings to survive and thrive. New research shows that beneficial gut microbes, especially common Clostridia bacteria, can ...

Bacteria Use One Simple Strategy to Navigate Complex Worlds
Just like every other creature, bacteria have evolved creative ways of getting around. Sometimes this is easy, like swimming in open water, but navigating more confined spaces poses different ...
Scientists have uncovered a direct molecular mechanism by which gut bacteria inject proteins into human cells, reshaping immune responses and potentially driving inflammatory disease. Scientists have ...
Research conducted partly aboard the International Space Station (ISS) suggests that "microgravity" could help scientists fight drug-resistant superbugs, according to a report from SWNS. Microgravity ...
