Researchers stored a copy of the Wizard of Oz - in Esperanto - in DNA using a revolutionary new technique.

A new study from researchers at The University of Texas at Austin has found that some antivirals are useful for more than helping sick people get better — they also can prevent thousands of deaths and hundreds of thousands of virus cases if used in the early stages of infection.

Their findings could have applications crop yields, disease and stress resistance in plants, and informing biofuel production.

So what will the next 50 years bring? Absent a crystal ball, your best bet would be to ask a scientist.

Bacterial DNA much more twisted than originally thought.

Genetically engineered strains of bacteria protect bees from mites and viruses that can lead to colony collapse.

Steven Vokes has studied the related Hedgehog signaling pathway for much of his career.
