Burst of Mutations During Initial Infection Allows Bacteria To Evade Human Immune Response
Electron micrograph of the stomach bacteria Helicobacter pylori. A research team including Penn State scientists has discovered that a burst of rapid evolution immediately following infection allows this bacteria that causes ulcers in humans to survive the immune system and establish a chronic infection.

A New Pathway for Neuron Repair is Discovered
This image shows a single neuron in a whole animal 5 hours after dendrites were removed with laser surgery (left). The same cell was imaged at 48 hours and 96 hours after the dendrites were removed. At 48 hours (middle) a new dendrite arbor extends from the cell body, and by 96 hours the new arbor fills the entire space normally occupied by the cell.
