"Bacteria on the tongue are a lot more than just a random pile.

The presence of certain bacteria in a mother’s gut is linked to a decreased risk of their baby developing food allergies in the first year of life.

Myriad microbes dwell on human tongues — and scientists have now gotten a glimpse at the neighborhoods that bacteria build for themselves.

They have found a way to control bacteria to transport microscopic cargo.
