Researchers found bacterial cells so large they are easily visible to the naked eye, challenging ideas about how large microbes can get. By Carl Zimmer In a Caribbean mangrove forest, scientists have ...

Microscope Images of the bacteria P. acnes left untreated (A,B) or incubated for 24-hours (C,D) with resveratrol. Images were taken at 10,000x magnification (A,C) or 29,000x magnification (B,D).

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...
