Genes responsible for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) can spread from microbe to microbe through circular genetic material called plasmids, and this lateral transfer occurs in the gut. This week in ...

She calls these microbes “colonisers”, because of the way they spread, often harmlessly, inside humans and animals. By looking at them, she’s identified genes that correlate to AMR ...
