The Streptococcus gordonii organism is a commensal member of the human oral flora. It initiates the formation of biofilms on tooth surfaces known as dental plaque, which is strongly associated with the development of dental cavities (caries) and gum disease. It is a frequent causative agent of bacterial endocarditis (inflammation of the membrane lining the heart) which often occurs as a result of oral trauma, allowing S. gordonii to invade the bloodstream and colonize the heart.
An artificial intelligence system facilitates robots to perform independent scientific experiments—as many as 10,000/day—possibly taking a big step ahead in the speed of discovery in fields from medicine to environmental science to agriculture.
