The paper quantifies cell wall mechanics in fission yeast to show how wall stiffness scales with cell diameter and adapts to size changes.

SpitWorm, a robotic device, mimics insect herbivory by causing mechanical wounding and applying salivary components, inducing plant defense responses similar to real larvae feeding.

The paper determines the structure of a bacterial ATP synthase using cryo-EM, revealing its mechanism and how it performs core functions similar to mitochondrial complexes.

The paper develops IPTG-controlled conditional suicide plasmids for efficient and regulatable transposon mutagenesis in multiple bacterial species.
