These chemical signals spread through a biofilm that colonies of bacteria form after they reach a certain density, and are used to help the colonies scavenge food, as well as defend against threats, like antibiotics. Researchers examined how different structures affects biofilm growth and QS by the bacteria in the presence of antibiotics. They found structure does have an effect on QS in some strains of the bacteria. Similar to how cells within human tissues communicate and function together as a…

Moviemaking is a tough business. You need to have a sense if humor if you’re going to survive it.Just ask David F.

Masks work. Especially respirator-style N95 masks. Amid an ongoing pandemic and outbreaks of influenza and RSV caused by airborne viruses, arguing over the virus-blocking power of masks remains one of the COVID era’s signature follies. Disconcertingly, despite decades of evidence of their efficacy, some of the disagreement comes from a few in the medical field itself, misusing science and endangering lives. Most recently a Cochrane review, which systematically assesses multiple randomized controlled trials, provoked headlines after claiming a lack of evidence that masks prevent transmission of many respiratory viruses. Not for the public, health care workers, or anyone. “There is…

Earlier this year in Indiana, day care director Tonya Rachelle Voris was fired and arrested for feeding melatonin supplements to young children in the New Life Church’s childcare program without parental consent.
