New Lab 🦠 investigating host-pathogen interactions during UTI @UofSouthAlabama @usacollegeofmed

[UTI Global Alliance @GlobalUti]

Get your blood pumping for our Valentine's Day #UTIhour!

Our panel of experts will discuss #urobacteremia - when 🦠 in our bladder go into our bloodstream 🩸

This is the lead of death in #UTI and makes up a QUARTER of sepsis cases 😱💀

Stay tuned to meet our speakers!

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. https://t.co/iq1cIqtGVE

Iron limitation induces motility in uropath. E. coli CFT073 partially thru action of LpdA https://t.co/uy6Rg3BqzS @harry_mobley We must learn the full breadth of UPEC pathogenesis to adequately respond to this common bug, esp. w/ the increase of antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

Sad to have not been there in person, but the Shea lab sent our finest! Rachel Fleck presented a poster yesterday on her Pseudomonas UTI project and is giving a podium talk today on her project to detect ASB using a water quality test kit. #AUA24 #CAIRIBUatAUA #AUA2024

Our first conference as a lab was so much fun! Great poster presentations by two of our undergraduate students at the Southeastern Branch meeting of #ASM #SEBASM2023

[Allyson Shea 🔬 @AShea_Lab]

So proud of both undergraduate students, Rachel and Sicily, who presented their work at the Research Symposium! 🔬🥼🧫
