Smart Microbes Talkfest

Microbial communication

Can microbes talk? We dont like it when theyre personified and made to 
look like evil creatures that are sitting beneath the rim of our toilet 
seats plotting against us. But, in fact, microbes DO talk to each other 
and Lucy G talks to an expert on quorum sensing, Dr Keith Stephenson. Then 
she catches up with Professor Mark Wilcox about the recent developments in 
Clostridium difficile research. And there's news too.
