I am so excited to be a 2022 ChateaubriandProgram fellow! I will be spending eight months in Paris at Institut Cochin to study phage therapy for UTIs with Molly Ingersoll. Thanks so much to Katy Patras, BCM Tailor Labs, Barbara Trautner, and my labmates for their support. I can't wait! 🇫🇷

Jake Jacob Zulk presented his work against uropathogenic E. coli this past Friday. He studies bacterial fitness cost in the urinary environment, especially when challenged with phages For more details, here is the published article released this year! ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

#UTIHour THIS FRIDAY 4/7 12pm EST!!! Our speaker Sami Ottinger, a PhD candidate in Katy Patras lab is SUPER EXCITED to present her talk, "An In Vivo Model of Urinary Tract Infection-Associated Preterm Birth" 👶🏽🦠. We're excited to hear it! UTIGA.org/upcoming

Our last, but definitely not least, #UTIhour speaker (this Friday 4/7 12pm est) is Léa Deltourbe, a PhD student in Molly Ingersoll lab at Institut Cochin! She studies the impact of steroid levels on the immune system, to improve our understanding of ♂️♀️ differences in #UTI (1/2)

I was randomly checking PLOS Pathogens and saw that our recent E. coli vaccine paper was highlighted! BCM Tailor Labs Jacob Zulk Dr. Sabrina Green, PhD Katy Patras From the Labs at Baylor College of Medicine

So excited to share the hard work of Vicki Mercado-Evans, Ph.D. to understand why gestational diabetes increases susceptibility to group B Streptococcus! We found the pathogen, host immunity, and the microbiota are all contributing factors. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share the hard work of Marlyd Mejia and an incredible team on vaginal microbiota and pathogen dynamics in a humanized microbiota mouse model! nature.com/articles/s4152…

What began as a starbucks conversation with Kathleen Pennington in Feb. 2020 became this lovely story with the hard work of Vicki Mercado-Evans, Ph.D. and help from Anthony Flores and Natalia Korotkova 🇺🇦 From the Labs at Baylor College of Medicine BCM Microbiome nature.com/articles/s4146…

Great to see the Houston group at the #UTICONF24 learning lots and meeting most of the players in the #UTIfield

Why is preterm birth risk doubled with maternal UTI? It depends on the immune response. We found distinct immune signatures in a UTI-associated preterm birth mouse model. In a human cohort from Allyson Shea 🔬, urine cytokine levels could predict preterm birth. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
