Ever notice how fast we’re all connected by invisible threads, ideas, memories, and dreams, but spend most of our time tangled in the mundane?
Today, I’m pulling at those threads to see where they lead. What about you? 🌌

Bacteria are known to develop antibiotic resistance through mutations in DNA or their ability to actively pump and transport antibiotics out of the cell. Alterations to chemical modifications in ribosomal RNA could emerge as another mechanism. Full study here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
