Streptococcus mutans exists within a biofilm ecosystem where neighboring microbes influence each other’s viability. Probiotic strains with complementary antagonistic properties may enhance suppres...

Abstract. With the explosion of chromosome-scale genome assemblies being generated in recent years, there is vast potential for comparative genomics analys

Abstract. Experimental evolution provides a powerful framework for dissecting how ecological interactions shape adaptive trajectories. Here, we evolved Kle

The trailer for Run Terry Run, a new documentary about cancer research advocate Terry Fox featuring "never-before-seen" footage from his Marathon of Hope, was released today, one month ahead of its pr...

Abstract. Microbial communities are shaped by social interactions that influence survival, resource access, and evolutionary trajectories. Most studies of

Screening of ESBL-, pAmpC- and carbapenemase-producing Escherichia coli among Swedish wildlife demonstrated a low occurrence of antibiotic resistance in wild animals. Only two ESBL/pAmpC-producers we...

Recently, our group showed that the dental pathogen Streptococcus mutans is inherently more tolerant to high zinc stress than other streptococci, a phenotype associated with the presence of a P-type A...

The Alberta government has considered three different pipeline routes through northern British Columbia for a new major oil export pipeline, according to documents obtained by CBC News which provide a...

A distinct set of microbes has been identified in people with obesity, which might help spot and treat the condition early – but whether it is a cause or effect of the condition isn’t known

From infrared thermal cameras to hydrophones, these B.C. residents offered up space on their properties as researchers look to help safeguard marine mammals.

The discovery of oxygen being produced on the ocean floor — apparently by ancient lumps of metal — has put the scientists behind the landmark study at odds with the Canada-based mining company that funded them.

Bacteria of the SAR202 clade are ubiquitously distributed in the ocean, but their biology is poorly understood due to the lack of cultivated isolates. Here, Lim et al. report the cultivation of marine...

Fish and Wildlife Service biologists expressed frustrations in emails obtained by Bloomberg.

This is the website for the MicroBinfie Podcast, a discussion about the intersection between bioinformatics and public health.

References from pseudoarchaeology and conspiracy theories are central in Spriggan. Through these, themes such as militarization, foreign politics, and climate change are explored. In Part One of this ...
