academic and careers Cholera bacteria infect more effectively with a simple twist of shape By www.princeton.edu Published On :: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 12:00:00 -0500 Princeton University researchers have discovered that the bacteria behind the life-threatening disease cholera initiates infection by coordinating a wave of mass shapeshifting that allows them to more effectively penetrate their victims' intestines. The researchers also identified the protein that allows Vibrio cholerae to morph, and found that it's activated through quorum sensing. The findings could lead to new treatments for cholera that target the bacteria's ability to change shape or penetrate the gut. Full Article

The work could explain many patterns throughout the world. Full Article

academic and careers How temperature guides where species live and where they'll go By www.princeton.edu Published On :: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 12:00:00 -0500 A Princeton University-based study could prove significant in answering among the most enduring questions for ecologists: Why do species live where they do, and what are the factors that keep them there? The ranges of animals in the world's temperate mountain areas — often presumed to be determined by competition — may actually be determined more by temperature and habitat, the researchers report. The findings indicate that species living in temperate mountain habitats — particularly in the northern latitudes — could face even greater repercussions from climate change than previously thought.
