• Resumen

  • In the current era of public scientific �debate� such as the scientific merit of climate change, it should come as no surprise that a bacterium would have its 15minutes of political limelight. Furthermore, a few dedicated citizens can truly influence the lives of many by changing the law of the land. For microbiologists, who often complain that our contributions go unnoticed and that we have no political power, this story serves to prove otherwise.
