Excited to announce that my third thesis chapter is out! This one was so much fun to work on with @KdoranLab. I’ve always been fascinated by bacterial DNA methylation regulating gene expression, and got to study how it impacts GBS vaginal colonization: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

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 @AShea_Lab, urine cytokine levels could predict preterm birth. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
