Marine Biotechnologists Treat Cancer With Mud-loving Ocean Bacteria
Biomedicine scientists identified and sequenced the genes of a bacteria called Salinispora tropica. It produces anti-cancer compounds and can be found in ocean sediments off the Bahamas. A product ... > more -
Plant Biologists Discover Plant Defenses Against Insects
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 ... > more -
Microbiologists Invent Coating To Protect Athletes From Infection
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, ... > more -
Entomologists Buzzing About Vanishing Bee Populations
Entomologists are studying the reasons behind an enormous bee die off happening across the country. They call it Colony Collapse Disorder, and if they cannot find a solution the 80% of fruits and ... > more -
