Viruses within Salmonella rapidly spread genes throughout the bacterial population during a gut infection, scientists show.

Researchers employ an engineered microbe to destroy tumor cells in mice.

Scientists identify a barrier in mice between the intestine and its blood supply, and suggest how Salmonella sneaks through it.
