Phages and bacteria accumulate distinctive mutations aboard the International Space Station
In a new study, terrestrial bacteria-infecting viruses were still able to infect their E. coli hosts in near-weightless ...
Antibiotics can destroy many types of bacteria, but increasingly, bacterial pathogens are gaining resistance to many commonly used types. As the threat of antibiotic resistance looms large, ...
Scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School and the National University Health System (NUHS), together with an international team of researchers, have uncovered a complex interplay of factors that increase ...
When scientists sent bacteria-infecting viruses to the International Space Station, the microbes did not behave the same way ...
Far from Earth's gravitational pull, a simple viral infection took on a new evolutionary direction. A study conducted aboard the ISS found that when bacteria and ...

Viruses may be more powerful in the International Space Station's microgravity environment
"Microgravity pushed evolution into corners of the phage we still don't fully understand" ...
On the ISS, viruses can still infect bacteria, but the process slows and pushes both organisms to evolve along different ...
Queensland researchers have discovered that a mutation allows some E. coli bacteria to cause severe disease in people while other bacteria are harmless, a finding that could help to combat antibiotic ...
Duke-NUS and NUHS scientists uncover a complex web of genetic, age-related and microbial factors that increase the risk of stomach cancer.Age-related blood cell mutations may trigger early changes in ...
