IBD research, for all its sophistication, has been searching under the lamppost — sequencing, mapping and quantifying what can be seen. But the key may lie in the park, in the unseen intersections of ...

In 2014, locals near Zimapán, Mexico discovered a mummy in an ancient rock shelter. Scientists believe that the Zimapán man ...

Japanese scientists have launched the world’s first experiment to ferment sake in space, aiming to determine whether microbial brewing processes can function in lunar gravity. Conducted aboard the ...

Since the beginning of the microbiome era decades ago, 16S rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing has been widely adopted for microbial composition profiling. Many researchers might assume the 16S ...
