Extreme environments such as hyperarid, hypersaline, hyperthermal environments, and the deep sea harbor diverse microbial communities, which are specially adapted to extreme conditions and are known as extremophiles. These extremophilic organisms have developed unique survival strategies, making them ideal models for studying microbial diversity, evolution, and adaptation to adversity. They also play critical roles in biogeochemical cycles.

Introduction: Meticillin resistant (MRSA) is a major contributor to surgical site infections in post-operative patients. Hospital environments harbor MRSA, contributing to higher risk of nosocomial infections. Meticillin resistance is conferred by acquisition of gene, typically carried on mobile genetic element called Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome (SCC).

Bioremediation of trichloroethene (TCE)-contaminated sites often leads to groundwater acidification, while nitrate-polluted sites tend to generate alkalization. TCE and nitrate often coexist at contaminated sites; however, the pH variation caused by nitrate self-alkalization and TCE self-acidification and how these processes affect nitrate reduction and reductive dichlorination, have not been studied. This study investigated the interaction between nitrate and TCE, two common groundwater co-contaminants, during bioreduction in serum bottles containing synthetic mineral salt media and microbial consortia.

The World of Welcome (WOW) program, launched by Hamad Medical Corporation (HMC) in Qatar in 2011, represents a pioneering effort to integrate hospitality principles into healthcare. The program was designed to improve patient and staff experiences in a diverse, multicultural environment. The WOW program was developed to focus on key hospitality values, such as professionalism, empathy, and communication, offering training in multiple languages, including English, Arabic, Hindi, and Malayalam.
