Scientists found a virus-like living entity in human bodies named "obelisks" - small loops of RNA, each a thousand genetic “letters” long.

Scientists have turned to advanced AI to decode the intricate ecosystem of gut bacteria and their chemical signals. Using a Bayesian neural network called VBayesMM, researchers can now identify ...

A team of researchers has found a way to turn the bacteria living in the digestive tracts of animals into factories that can ...

Our gut is a bustling hub of activity, home to trillions of microbes that work together with our bodies to keep us healthy. A recent study explores one fascinating aspect of this partnership: how gut ...

The research, conducted by scientists from the Doherty Institute, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, and Monash University, ...

New research reveals how gut microbes may influence the development of coronary artery disease, the world’s leading killer.

New research reveals gut bacteria significantly influence heart health by producing chemicals affecting cholesterol, inflammation, and blood clots. Imbalances in this microbial ecosystem can lead to ...

Illinois researchers combined microbiology with microfluidic device technology to find that when antibiotics are delivered by flowing fluids, as would be the case in the body, they are more effective ...

UT Southwestern researchers have uncovered new clues about how gut bacteria and the body's circadian clock work together to promote body fat accumulation. In a mouse study that may someday lead to new ...

Imagine being traced to a particular location based on the bacteria you pick up on your travels. Researchers from Lund University have created an AI tool that does just that, using microorganisms as a ...
