Fungi produce metabolites that humans have used to improve health. In a new study, researchers use cheese rinds to demonstrate that fungal antibiotics can influence how microbiomes develop.

Scientists made an important leap forward in the quest to diagnose disease using exhaled breath, reporting that a new laser-based breathalyzer powered by artificial intelligence (AI) can detect COVID-19 in real-time with excellent accuracy.

A new study has discovered novel strains of bacteria and fungi, adapted to the cold climates of the Alps and the Arctic, that can digest plastics at temperatures as low as 15°C/59°F.

Scientists have engineered bacteria to record signals from the external environment in their swarming patterns. The team successfully decoded these signals using artificial intelligence (AI). The research, published in Nature Chemical Biology, provides a framework for building a “natural” environment recording system.

Researchers use an evolutionary cell biology approach in two related fission yeasts, one which acquires energy by respiration and one which doesn't, to find the critical points at which respiration feeds into central carbon metabolism.

Scientists have collaborated to produce the first gene-edited calf with resistance to bovine viral diarrhea virus, a virus that costs the US cattle sector billions of dollars annually.

Researchers have mapped the gut immune system in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which could aid in the development of more targeted therapies.

According to research, mice exposed to air pollution from Beijing, China had increased neuroinflammation after ischemic stroke.

New research found that people living with HIV that have had pulmonary tuberculosis had broader and more potent HIV antibody responses.

Common food additives known as metal oxide nanoparticles may have negative effects on your gut health, according to new research.
