Scientists assess bacterial growth trajectories to better predict infectious capacity and the conditions that aid proliferation. This article explores the key factors that influence bacterial ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ ...

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 ...

Researchers from King's College London and the University of Surrey have developed a new technique to measure the content of ...

The bacteria that cause tuberculosis (TB) may have an "on-off switch" that lets them pause and restart growth, according to a new study from the University of Surrey and the University of Oxford. The ...

How can bacteria that forage on organic particles survive in vast ocean regions where such particles are extremely sparse? A ...

Like so many organisms on the planet, when cells experience mosh-pit-level crowding, they may just become stressed. Yet unlike most other life forms, cells subject to physical stress from crowding by ...
