Authorities have identified Burkholderia pseudomallei in U.S. environmental samples “for the first time.” The bacteria can cause the infectious disease known as melioidosis or Whitmore’s disease.

Bacteria and other unicellular organisms developed sophisticated ways to actively navigate their way, despite being comparably simple structures. To reveal these mechanisms, researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization (MPI-DS) used oil droplets as a model for biological microswimmers.
