Extinctions could result as fish change foraging behaviour in response to rising temperatures
Fish are changing how they search for and consume prey in warmer waters, with models suggesting extinctions become more likely due to this behaviour change,...
Drug-resistant tuberculosis responds rapidly to bedaquiline-based second-line therapy
Patients who have drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) have a similar microbiological response to bedaquiline-based second-line medications as patients with drug-sensitive TB taking first-line regimens, according to...
