Biotic interactions modulate protein abundance, reducing functional redundancy and increasing productivity in complex bacterial communities.

Molecular interactions drive co-evolutionary arms races between hosts and pathogens. These interactions shape the structure and function of both host and parasite proteins, enabling immunity or virule...

Phylogenomic analyses of newly sequenced and published decapodiform cephalopods separate open-ocean and coastal shallow-water clades, following rapid cladogenesis from the mid-Cretaceous.

NIH leadership said the union “should never have been certified,” in an email to the union’s leadership.

Some symbiotic bacteria can invade micron-scale host passages by wrapping their flagella around themselves and moving like a tunneling machine. Our study reveals how this clever motion enables them to overcome extreme confinement and successfully colonize their hosts.

Spatial structure naturally emerges in microbial communities, shaping growth, interactions, and evolution, and revealing how microscale processes scale up

Microbes communicate and compete using small molecules, yet linking specific metabolites to visible behaviors is difficult. We combine imaging mass spectrometry, genomics, analytical chemistry, and bi...

A new grad student writes that a confidentiality rule from UConn during union contract negotiations has sparked confusion and unrest.

Abstract. Microbes coordinate homeostasis in host-associated and environmental ecosystems alike, but the connectivity of these biomes is seldom considered.

UConn currently lets every pregnant/expecting individual reinvent the wheel, cobbling together a leave plan with whatever resources and departmental grace they can muster.

Indigenous and Western scientists are working together to uncover biodiversity in the icy deep. They're getting some eight-armed help.

The mutualism between the green alga Oophila amblystomatis (“Oophila”) and egg masses of the spotted salamander Ambystoma maculatum involves acquisition of a...

This review delves into the technical advancements of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) applications f…

Public Indiana colleges and universities have eliminated 19 percent of their degree programs to meet requirements added to the state’s budget, according to the Commission for Higher Education.

Transgender and gender nonconforming (TGnC) people are a primary target of the Trump administration. Multiple executive orders seek to erase TGnC protections; mandate denial of gender identity; and ba...
