Bacteria grow microscopic electrical wires with remarkable conductivity, revealing a new blueprint for flexible ...

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 ...

AI systems have recently had a lot of success in one key aspect of biology: the relationship between a protein’s structure and its function. These efforts have included the ability to predict the ...

Researchers at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) have uncovered how the bacteria that causes tuberculosis fuels itself during infection, providing new insights into one of the world's ...

Bacteria can sneakily evade our best efforts at eradication by developing resistance to various pressures in their environment, for example, antibiotic-resistant bacteria stubbornly survive the usual ...

A Nigerian scientist, Kehinde Adebiyi, has co-led a research study at Indiana University in the United States, uncovering an unexpected weakness in bacteria’s process of building structures used for ...
