Experimental evolution paired with modern sequencing can be a powerful approach to identify the mechanisms by which bacteria adapt discrete environmental conditions found in nature or during infections. We used this enabling biofilm specialists of opportunistic respiratory pathogen Burkholderia cenocepacia regain planktonic fitness. Seven mutants producing wrinkly (W) small-colony variants mutations wrinkly-spreader operon (wsp) cluster, but varying duration adaptation, served as ancestors...
Recent studies have shown that Escherichia coli in highly confined porous media exhibit extended periods of `trapping' punctuated by forward `hops', a significant restructuring the classical run-and-tumble model motility. However, bacterial species must navigate diverse range complex habitats, such as biological tissues, soil, and sediments. These natural environments display varying levels both (1) packing density (i.e., confinement) (2) structure disorder). Here, we introduce microfluidic...
Abstract University faculty hiring networks are known to be hierarchical and exacerbate various types of inequity. Still, a detailed, historical understanding dynamics lacks in many academic fields. We focus on the field mathematics, analyzing over 120,000 records from 150 institutions seven decades elucidate temporal doctoral-granting (DG) at individual departmental levels. demonstrate that disparity between number mathematics Ph.D.s awarded DG positions filled has grown time. Even with...
