So, what are my caveats? Well, I see three. First, teixobactin isn’t a potential panacea. It doesn’t kill the Gram-negative opportunists as it is too big to cross their complex cell wall. Secondly, scaling to commercial manufacture will be challenging, since the bacteria making the antibiotic are so difficult to 85 grow. And, thirdly, it’s early days yet. As with any antibiotic, teixobactin now faces the long haul of clinical trials: Phase I to see what dose you can safely give the patient, Phase II to see if it cures infections, and Phase III to compare its efficacy to that of “standard of care treatment.” That’s going to take five years and £500 million and these are numbers we must find ways to reduce (while not compromising safety) if we’re to keep ahead of bacteria, which can evolve far more swiftly and cheaply.
In the last sentence, the author uses the phrase “five years and £500 million” primarily to
A) emphasize the scale of the effort needed to make teixobactin available for consumer use.

Survival in the Hostile Environment of NW Rota-1
Sixty miles north of Guam and more than 1,700 feet under the ocean’s surface is the summit of NW Rota-1, an undersea volcano discovered in 2003. Surprisingly, the volcano appears to have been continuously active; it even grew 130 feet in height between 2006 and 2009. Yet despite the hostile environment created by the constant volcanic activity, life is thriving there. Special adaptations are the key to survival. At that depth, water pressure suppresses the explosive force of the volcano’s eruptions, allowing scientists to **watch and observe** them up close via remotely operated vehicles.
