To investigate how gut bacteria can affect overall health, researchers at Harvard Medical School have deleted a single gene from one gut bacteria species and found that it alters the metabolism of ...

Antibiotics are effective at killing bacteria (for now, at least), but they aren't very picky, indiscriminately wiping out both good and bad bacteria. This can upset the fragile balance of your ...

The data also suggests that the single bacterium leading to sepsis has no obvious characteristics that give it an advantage over the 999,999 others, but that random events determine which of the ...
