Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about E. Coli Part I: Scientific American Podcast
Posted using ShareThis
Carl Zimmer discusses his book on E. Coli and there are some interesting historical pieces in this first podcast. I recently went to a talk that discuss the possibility of “kissing” developing to pass useful bacteria back and forth between people and I was reminded of this when I listened to this podcast. Certainly, we have gained much knowledge from studying more simple species and learning how genes are activated, deactivated, and passed from one cell to another.
