I serendipitously came across a few very rare examples of the material during my unrelated PhD research, long ago, on fossil microbial reefs, when I became a professor and had my own grants, I was able to return to the field sites and collect more material so that I had a more robust collection to work from. – Elizabeth Turner	Found on CNN 2 years ago
As astronauts explore space, they're taking with them a company of different microbial species, and it's really important to understand how those microbes, collectively called the microbiome, change in the space environment and how those relationships are established. – Jamie Foster	Found on CNN 2 years ago
The interaction of ascending magma and the icy substrate of this region could have provided favorable conditions for microbial life fairly recently and raises the possibility of extant life in this region. – David Horvath	Found on CNN 2 years ago
Perseverance's sophisticated science instruments will not only help in the hunt for fossilized microbial life, but also expand our knowledge of Martian geology and its past, present, and future, our science team has been busy planning how best to work with what we anticipate will be a firehose of cutting-edge data. That's the kind of' problem' we are looking forward to. – Ken Farley	Found on CNN 3 years ago
The Convention states in Article I that each state party to this Convention undertakes never in any circumstances to retain microbial or other biological agents, or toxins whatever their origin or method of production, of types and in quantities that have no justification for prophylactic, protective or other peaceful purposes, in my view, non-reporting is a form of retention in violation of the Convention. The United States is also a state party to the treaty. If the U.S. found China acted in breach of its obligations deriving from the provisions of the Convention by its delay in reporting the coronavirus, the U.S. could lodge a complaint with the Security Council. – David Matas	Found on FOX News 4 years ago
The dynamic interface of a complex core and seawater could potentially create energy sources that might support life, while we have not found evidence of the presence of microbial life in the ocean of Enceladus, the growing evidence for chemical disequilibrium offers a tantalizing hint that habitable conditions could exist beneath the moons icy crust. – SwRIsHunter	Found on FOX News 4 years ago
As the world confronts the crisis of anti-microbial resistance, we hope it will become an important part of the anti-bacterial toolbox. – Tohid Didar	Found on CNN 4 years ago
We can see this technology being used in all kinds of institutional and domestic settings, as the world confronts the crisis of anti-microbial resistance, we hope it will become an important part of the anti-bacterial toolbox. – Tohid Didar	Found on CNN 4 years ago
We went to Gale Crater because Gale Crater preserves this unique record of a changing Mars, understanding when and how the planet's climate started evolving is a piece of another puzzle : When and how long was Mars capable of supporting microbial life at the surface ? – William Rapin	Found on CNN 4 years ago
These catsharks live on the ocean bottom, yet we don't see any biofouling or growth, so this could help explain yet another amazing feature of shark skin, this study opens new questions related to potential function of biofluorescence in central nervous system signaling, resilience to microbial infections, and photoprotection. – David Gruber	Found on CNN 4 years ago
They didn't find any microbial growth on the lunar samples, and they didn't have any microorganisms that they at least initially attributed to any extraterrestrial source or lunar source, and the crew didn't have any signs of an infectious disease, and all the rodents survived the exams, so everybody did well. – Judith Hayes	Found on CNN 4 years ago
( The) body is covered in natural materials, like straw or wood chips, and over the course of about three to seven weeks, thanks to microbial activity, it breaks down into soil. – Read MoreHow	Found on CNN 5 years ago
Ive never seen a purple microbial mat, ever, anywhere. – Mandy Joye	Found on FOX News 5 years ago
Yet, it is also very important to consider that a very small portion of the caves on planet earth have been discovered and the microbial ecology of the discovered caves are heavily understudied. – Hosam Zowawi	Found on CNN 5 years ago
Caves make excellent environments for bats and bats make excellent reservoir for many viruses. That is why virologists are studying bats from caves for their potential carriage for lethal viruses, such as Ebola and Nipah viruses, yet, it is also very important to consider that a very small portion of the caves on planet earth have been discovered and the microbial ecology of the discovered caves are heavily understudied. – Hosam Zowawi	Found on CNN 5 years ago
With this new data, we again cannot rule out microbial activity as a potential source. – Christopher Webster	Found on Reuters 5 years ago
In the past, researchers have found dying organisms near the surface and remnants of DNA but this is really the first time that anyone has been able to identify a persistent form of life living in the soil of the Atacama Desert, we believe these microbial communities can lay dormant for hundreds or even thousands of years in conditions very similar to what you would find on a planet like Mars and then come back to life when it rains. – Dr Schulze-Makuch	Found on FOX News 6 years ago
Anaerobic digestion is something we use frequently on earth for treating waste, what was novel about our work was taking the nutrients out of that stream and intentionally putting them into a microbial reactor to grow food. – Professor House	Found on FOX News 6 years ago
We envisioned and tested the concept of simultaneously treating astronauts’ waste with microbes while producing a biomass that is edible either directly or indirectly, depending on safety concerns, it’s a little strange, but the concept would be a little bit like Marmite or Vegemite, where you’re eating a smear of ‘microbial goo’. – Professor House	Found on FOX News 6 years ago
In obese individuals you get different microbial compositions to produce something that can impact cancer. – Jeremy Nicholson	Found on CNN 8 years ago
Humans have always been interested in trying to find an answer to the question, 'Where do we come from?' Well, now we know from what type of microbial ancestor we descend, essentially, Lokiarchaeota represent a missing piece of the puzzle of the evolution from simple cells - bacteria and archaea, prokaryotes - to complex cells - eukaryotes, which includes us humans. – Uppsala University	Found on Reuters 9 years ago

We were challenged by Oxfam to think about lighting urinals that they would use in refugee camps. So this is the result of that conversation. And it's basically a live trial to demonstrate the microbial fuel cell technology over a long period of time; how it can continuously generate electricity from urine in real time. – Ioannis Ieropoulos	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
It's well known that these microbial communities have an impact on health and disease ... we have an opportunity to think about precision medicine. – Pieter Dorrestein	Found on CNN 9 years ago
