If this is adapted for liquids, it could work wonders in areas with contaminated drinking water. However, the article also states that future research will examine food quality. My question is, why was that not researched before this article was released?

Researchers have identified a biomarker, an eight gene "signature" (a group of genes in a cell whose combined expression is uniquely characteristic of a medical condition), that predicts how long cancer patients might survive without relapse after undergoing chemotherapy. They found that this eight gene signature show a strong correlation to an elevated response to five chemotherapy agents, and showed a lower risk of recurrence and longer relapse-free survival.

Curious if this eight gene signature is a result of the genetics of our cell (and resultant interactions) or if it entirely up to the cancerous agent? In simpler terms, are we genetically prone to this eight gene signature or is it luck that our cancer results in this eight gene signature?

This could have huge implications in the microbiology field. If they could somehow find an antibiotic use out of this fungus it could help fight bacteria that is resistant to most drugs on the market today.

We were just talking about how phone operating testing is the wave of the future. this is pretty interesting and might even be incredibly helpful considering some people have life threatening food allergies!

A rather novel discovery in the field of pili biogenesis. This also appears to be a big steeping stone in the development of potential new antibiotics for cystitis (bladder inflammation a.k.a urinary tract infections).
