Surprising bacteria discovery links Hawaiʻi’s groundwater to the ocean
17 October 2025
Researchers at the University of Hawaii Mānoa, alongside undergraduate students, describe a new species of bacteria isolated from seawater off the coast of O'ahu. Upon further investigation, the team identified Caulobacter inopinatus as a land-based microbe which had been transported from the lad to the sea, providing insights into the flow of nutrients and contaminants that can affect coastal water quality.

New Microbiology Society policy briefing: Where are microbiomes, and why are they important?
26 September 2025
Microbes do not exist in isolation. Instead, they live in complex and dynamic communities in which different microbial species are constantly interacting. When these communities are combined with a specific host (for example, humans, animals and plants) or environment (for example, soil and oceans), we refer to the ecosystem as a microbiome.

Koala stress linked to disease threat
22 September 2025
Researchers from the University of Queensland reveal the relationship between levels of stress hormones and increased susceptibility to secondary infection in koalas with koala retrovirus (KoRV), an often fatal disease contributing towards their declining populations, in a new paper published in the Journal of General Virology.
