Glaciers harbor both ancient and human-derived antibiotic resistance genes, preserved in ice and increasingly mobilized by ...

Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test of gut bacteria: Paper sheets soaked with antibiotics are placed on a petri dish. The antibiotic concentration decreases with increasing distance. The closer bacteria ...

Antibiotic resistance has become one of the most pressing threats to global health. Infections once treatable with a simple prescription are becoming harder, sometimes impossible, to cure. Doctors ...

What if generative AI could design life-saving antibiotics, not just art and text? In a new Cell Biomaterials paper, Penn researchers introduce AMP-Diffusion, a generative AI tool used to create tens ...
