Cancer Killer Found In The Ocean
Biomedicine scientists
identified and sequenced the
genes of a bacteria called

Plants Under Attack
Plant biologists have
identified the strategy used
by plants to recognize an
attack. When insects ingest
parts of a plant digestion
turns proteins into a
peptide elicitor, which is
secreted back into the plant

Protecting Athletes
Microbiologists have devised
an anti-microbial coating to
protect athletes from
potentially deadly
infections. When applied to
a surface, the coating bonds
to it, then inhibits growth
of bacteria, fungi, mold,
