Description
The hosts discuss research linking bacterial signatures to colon-cancer recurrence and a separate study of bacteriophage-derived proteins that trigger bacterial pilus detachment. The episode works through the scientific papers and experimental questions; the cancer findings concern an association rather than proof of causation.
