Mouth Bacteria Can Change Its Diet, Supercomputers...

2015/01/27

It turns out that bacteria inside your mouth drastically change how they act when you're diseased, for instance with the gum disease periodontitis. That's according to research led by Marvin Whiteley and Keith Turner of the University of Texas at Austin. Together they used the Stampede and Lonestar supercomputers of TACC to compare gene expression of 160,000 genes in healthy and diseased periodontal communities of bacteria.
