After implantation, the tissue developed blood vessels and became integrated into neuronal networks in the animals’ brains.
Scientists are beginning to unravel the ways in which we develop a healthy relationship with the bugs in our bodies.

There is little evidence that full treatment durations discourage the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
Tests so far typically screen for risky patterns that may augment traditional types of clinical data.
By tweaking certain conditions of a long-running experiment on E. coli, scientists found that some bacteria could be prompted to express a mutant phenotype sooner, without the “generation of new genetic information.” The resulting debate—whether the data support evolutionary theory—is more about semantics than science.
Lyme disease–causing bacteria can outmaneuver antibiotics in vitro and manipulate the mouse immune system.
Circumcision and sexual activity are but two factors that can influence the bacterial communities that inhabit male genitalia.
The overly simplistic notion of a Lactobacillus-dominated vaginal microbiome is giving way to an appreciation of diverse and dynamic bacterial communities.
The drought has ended for biotech companies seeking to join the public market, but whether this upward swing will last is anybody’s guess.
