A community-curated, global atlas of Bacillus cereus sensu lato genomes for epidemiological surveillance

The paper develops BTyperDB, a global atlas of Bacillus cereus sensu lato genomes, to improve pathogen surveillance and identify emerging lineages.

ElegansBot: Development of equation of motion deciphering locomotion including omega turns of Caenorhabditis elegans

This paper develops a kinetic model of C. elegans locomotion that reproduces various movements, including omega turns, and quantifies forces acting on body segments.

Conditional forest models built using metagenomic data could accurately predict Salmonella contamination in Northeastern streams

This paper uses metagenomic data from Northeastern streams to predict Salmonella contamination using conditional forest models, finding Aeromonas and Tabrizicola as key indicators.

Internally-controlled and dynamic optical measures of functional tumor biology

This paper develops internally controlled optical reporters to quantitatively measure functional tumor biology, improving the accuracy of drug response assessment in vitro and in vivo.

The obligate intracellular bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi differentiates into a developmentally distinct extracellular state

This paper identifies and characterizes two distinct developmental forms of Orientia tsutsugamushi, intracellular and extracellular bacteria, showing differences in morphology, protein expression, and entry mechanisms into host cells.
