Title: Population dynamics and universal statistics of tumor-inhabiting bacteria.

Abstract: Bacteria inhabit different areas of the human body and perform essential functions. Increasing evidence of bacterial effects on cancer progression has brought interest to tumor-inhabiting bacteria. However, it is not understood how bacteria affect the tumor, nor how the tumor environment affects bacterial dynamics. Our experimental collaborators infect mouse tumors with DNA-barcoded bacteria, creating...
