New algorithm to ensure more accuracy in studying the interior of the Earth

Credit: SPbU An essential preliminary to building and construction or resource extraction is studying the geological structure of the site. One of steps of this process is geophysical investigation. This provides a continuous overview of the geological horizons rather than just data on points: boreholes. The standard methods of geophysics help successfully solve this problem in comparatively simple conditions. Yet the classical direct current methods may lead to serious inaccuracy if we have to investigate geologically complex structures with thin layers of sandy and clayey soils. Among the most popular methods in geoelectrical survey is electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). It is a geophysical method for imaging subsurface structures by electrical resistivity measurements made at the surface or in boreholes. It allows geologists to see various rock formations as they have different resistivity. Yet the electrical resistivity tomography can also result in serious inaccuracy in

A new model can predict the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria

 E-Mail A team of scientists from the University of Cologne (Germany) and the University of Uppsala (Sweden) has created a model that can describe and predict the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Resistance to antibiotics evolves through a variety of mechanisms. A central and still unresolved question is how resistance evolution affects cell growth at different drug concentrations. The new model predicts growth rates and resistance levels of common resistant bacterial mutants at different drug doses. These predictions are confirmed by empirical growth inhibition curves and genomic data from Escherichia coli populations. The study has been published in the journal
