@Jasmine1Nobody@ScienceMagazine@scisignal This bacteria is a part of the human oral microbiome. It occurs in a large percentage of the population and likely is only problematic when its numbers get out of balance. We are hopeful that targeting over abundance of this bug could aid recovery from addiction.
The new issue of #ScienceSignaling is out!
