Genome-resolved surveillance of African Klebsiella oxytoca species complex genomes reveals resistome-mobilome and biosynthetic gene cluster diversity

The Klebsiella oxytoca species complex (KoSC) comprises taxonomically diverse commensals and opportunistic pathogens, but its genomic diversity remains poorly characterized across Africa. We curated publicly available African KoSC data through raw-read and public-assembly routes and analyzed 163 African genomes together with 282 global comparators. Pangenome, phylogenomic, sequence-typing,…

Bright people know more about wine: How higher intelligence is reflected in deep domain knowledge

Intelligent people tend to perform better at school and at work, as numerous studies have shown. But what happens in domains where incentives such as good grades or financial rewards don't apply and where socioeconomic status is not a significant factor? Wine knowledge is a case in point.

Animation boosts willingness to adopt airborne disease precautions, study finds

Even as the scientific community has reached a broad consensus that infectious pathogens, such as viruses, can spread through virus-laden aerosols, one fundamental challenge remains: How can scientific evidence be transformed into public understanding—and ultimately into meaningful action for effective airborne disease control and…
