  • A comment on Talk: Bonnie Bassler: How bacteria "talk"

    Apr 8 2009: What an amazing talk! Bonnie Bassler inspires us. Bacteria manifest collective phenomena for which there seemed to be no reasonable explanation; they seem to act like complex multifunctonal societies without even a single neuron. Now we know why, they communicate chemically, their syntax is quorum sensing. This is information at the lowest level! As she explains, this might eventually lead us to an "information-war" against virulent and immuno-resistant bacteria.
