In the first image (left), a molecular simulation on a supercomputer at Los Alamos National Laboratory reveals how the antibiotic evernimicin (light blue) interacts with transfer RNA molecules (gold) ...

Simulation of viral/bacterial pneumonia in a human lung tissue model. Spectral microscopy is used to visualize influenza viruses (green) inside the alveolar cells; attached to these, the pneumococcal ...

When confined in a water droplet, B. subtilis bacteria collectively and spontaneously form a swirling vortex, with some bacteria moving in one direction and others moving the opposite way. Researchers ...

Gram staining is one way scientists can identify bacteria. Gram-positive bacteria, such as Staphylococcus, appear blue or purple under a microscope when scientists apply a stain. Conversely, ...
