“We haven’t had a robust understanding of how properties of the environment and cell motility influence bacterial dispersion.” Mattingly decided to focus his model on ‘surface states ...

Bacteria consist of a single cell. They do not have bones and are not like big animals ... We started by training an ...

The proteasome is a microscopic barrel-shaped machine found in every cell of the human body. For decades, scientists only ...

Weady saw that this model aligned closely with their particle simulations, reinforcing their observations that crowded bacterial cells stalled their growth in response to stress. Weady S, et al. (2024 ...

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 ...

Research on the gut microbiome has focused mainly on bacteria, but bacteriophages and fungi play critical roles as well, with significant influences on health and disease.

Saccharin destabilizes bacterial membranes and interferes with DNA replication, causing lysis and impairing virulence traits. The sweetener also re-sensitizes multidrug-resistant pathogens to ...

Tulane's model addresses both problems by analyzing whole genome sequences and comparing groups of bacterial strains with different resistance patterns to find genetic changes that reliably indicate ...

"We haven't had a robust understanding of how properties of the environment and cell motility influence bacterial dispersion." Mattingly decided to focus his model on 'surface states' that ...
