Researchers at Simon Fraser University are studying the genes of superbugs to aid the development of new and effective treatments for drug-resistant bacterial infections. Superbugs are characterized as infection-causing bacteria resistant to treatment with antibiotics. “Antimicrobial resistance occurs when the disease-causing bacteria has ways to overcome the antibiotics that we use in treatment for infections,” says assistant professor Amy Lee, of SFU’s Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry. The initiative is a collaboration between the Lee Lab and Brinkman Lab, which are working together as part of the interdisciplinary SFU Omics Data Science Initiative (OSDI). “Our lab tries to understand…

Credit: AP Photo/Markus Schreiber Senior officials from dozens of nations meeting in Berlin remained divided Wednesday on how to meet international climate goals, with some pushing for a phaseout of fossil fuels and others insisting that oil and gas can continue to play a role in the future—provided their emissions are somehow contained.

Sometimes, fashion requires sacrifice, and Teyana Taylor went all in for the 2023 Met Gala. For several celebrities attending the fashion event on May 1, this meant wearing constricting outfits and holding their pee during the entirety of the event. For Taylor, it also meant relinquishing the ability to lift her feet more than a few centimeters. Still, she did look incredible in a structured tweed dress with plunging hip cutouts by Thom Browne. An ode to Lagerfeld, the dress resembled a tweed blazer layered over a floor-length skirt with a miniature train and elaborate ties on either side. The…

Graphical abstract. Credit: Molecular Systems Biology (2023). DOI: 10.15252/msb.202211320 It’s the quiet bacteria that you’ve got to watch out for, the bacteria that can survive antibiotic treatments by forming dormant, drug-tolerant “persisters.” These persister bacteria can wake up after treatment and prolong infections. Persisters were first described about 80 years ago in some of the first studies of the antibiotic penicillin. Later, it was discovered that these bacteria didn’t have genetic resistance to antibiotics—they basically go dormant, hibernating, essentially hiding from the treatment that has been designed to kill them. How they wake up again has remained a mystery. But…
It’s safe to say I’ve been utterly obsessed with the chin-length bob hairstyles that have emerged on some of my favourite celebs this year. As someone with a bob haircut, I fist pump the air acting as if I’m the CEO of some kind of invite-only short haired members club when yet another chin-grazing look gets debuted on the red carpet.Earlier this month, when Elsa Hosk took to her Instagram and shared the most insane 1950’s Marilyn Monroe-inspired bob––which she paired with a leather Louboutin trench coat, sheer tights and killer patent heels FYI––I realised I actually needed to give mine a…

On April 16, 1991, a supergroup of sorts known as Temple of the Dog released a self-titled album with little fanfare that would eventually become a surprise hit. But the real story of this disc actually starts on March 19, 1990. That was the day that Mother Love Bone vocalist Andrew Wood passed away from a heroin overdose and inspired the musicians that would come together to pay tribute to his musical legacy.It all started with Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell, who heard the news and was moved by his friendship with Wood to use music as a form of catharsis and…

Worms can entangle themselves into a single, giant knot, only to quickly unravel themselves from the tightly wound mess within milliseconds. Now, math shows how they do it.Researchers studied California blackworms (Lumbriculus variegatus) — thin worms that can grow to be 4 inches (10 centimeters) in length — in the lab, watching as the worms intertwined by the thousands. Even though it took the worms minutes to form into a ball-shaped blob akin to a snarled tangle of Christmas lights, they could untangle from the jumble in the blink of an eye when threatened, according to a study published April…
