Researchers were shocked to see that bacteria's antimicrobial resistance is strengthened when exposed to plastic particles.

"I think with our approach... we're starting to target something that bacteria will most likely not evolve resistance to."

New research digs into how soil bacteria contribute to the growing global issue of antibiotic resistance.

Researchers have used an AI tool to engineer a version of a bacteria-killing drug that was previously toxic in humans.

"In the right context, treatment can be lifesaving, but in the wrong context, it can be quite harmful."

A new treatment for Lyme disease offers hope to patients who suffer from long-term effects of the bacterial infection, even after antibiotic treatment.

New research finds a key clue that sheds light on the spread and evolution of antibiotic resistance.

Researchers trying to harness electricity from bacteria realized they may be onto solving another issue: antibiotic resistance.

Researchers have found a virus kills "sleeping" bacteria. The discovery could help fight germs that can't be treated with antibiotics alone.

A combination of antibiotics is more effective in treating Lyme disease than the commonly prescribed course of a single antibiotic alone.
