What have they uncovered?
A new study led in part by geomicrobiologist Steve D’Hondt at the University of Rhode Island reveals that given the right food in the right laboratory conditions, microbes collected from sediment as old as 100 million years can revive and multiply—even after laying dormant since large dinosaurs prowled the planet. Join D’Hondt at this month’s SciCafe to find out how the revival of these microbes advances understanding of life on Earth and the potential for life on other worlds.
