How bacteria "talk" to each other - Bonnie Bassler

This is an amazing video with extraordinary implications that I'd like to share with you.

Bonnie Bassler discovered that bacteria "talk" to each other, using a chemical language that lets them coordinate defense and mount attacks. The find has stunning implications for medicine, industry — and our understanding of ourselves.

This talk was presented at an official TED Conference.
