Wisconsin scientists discover a master key to microbes' pathogenic lifestyles
For some microbes, the transformation from a benign lifestyle in the soil to that of a potentially deadly human pathogen is just a breath away. Inhaled into the lungs of a mammal, spores from a class of six related soil molds found around the world encounter a new, warmer environment. And as soon as they do, they rapidly shift gears and assume the guise of pathogenic yeast, causing such s...For some young fish, early gene expression is a clear harbinger of fated lifestyle
As juveniles, individuals of many fish species face a developmental choice that will profoundly affect their future: whether to adopt a sedentary or migratory lifestyle. Sedentary (or "residential") individuals remain in the region of their birth, while their migratory compatriots set forth on long open-water journeys.

Twice in my career, dating back as long ago as 1988, I enthusiastically embraced the idea that personal computing had become a lifestyle and joined teams to create magazines to examine and celebrate that life. Both times, we were - at best - well ahead of our time. Now, many years later, I'm getting very excited about the converging computer and consumer electronics market, the emerging...Style Without Substance: Will HTML Email Survive Abuse?
