301: Another Year is Microbial
A highly reduced TWiM team presents a study of the use of phage diversity in cell-free DNA to identify bacterial pathogens in human sepsis cases, and the evolution, persistence, and host adaptation of a gonococcal antimicrobial resistance plasmid that emerged in the pre-antibiotic era.
Hosts: Vincent Racaniello and Petra Levin
Become a patron of TWiM.
