Antibiotic resistance is showing up in the guts of lemurs that live in close contact to humans. The closer the contact, the more antibiotic resistance.

Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest public health threats in the world. New research, however, may have found a way to keep up with rapidly evolving bacteria.

Similar to the way Ajax can clean your kitchen, a protein in non-immune cells can wipe out invading pathogens to fight infection.

Exposure to antibiotics in utero or after birth could lead to brain disorders in later childhood, a study with mice shows.

Making certain fruit flies, Drosophila suzukii, produce only male offspring could protect soft-skinned fruit crops, research indicates.

New and potentially deadly strains of antimicrobial resistant superbugs are hiding out in the guts of international travelers, a new study shows.

The study marks the first time researchers have identified a possible correlation between Lyme disease infection and Lewy body dementia.

The bacteria that cause Lyme disease can survive in organ tissue even after treatment with a full course of antibiotics months after infection.

A new inexpesive, portable device and mobile app can check for gonorrhea in less than fifteen minutes, researchers report.
