New research article> Lower respiratory tract infections in children requiring mechanical ventilation: a multicentre prospective surveillance study incorporating airway metagenomics https://t.co/qv1ek8fY9z #LRTI
CXCR3 regulates stem and proliferative CD8+ T cells during chronic infection by promoting interactions with DCs in splenic bridging channels https://t.co/cd8vgghlkr
One of the outstanding questions of the COVID-19 pandemic is why severe outcomes occur disproportionately in adults. We investigated this question by comparing the transcriptional response in the upper airway of children & adults with or without SARS-CoV-2 infection
Upper airway gene expression reveals a more robust innate and adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in children compared with older adults https://t.co/KGpWNK6M6G #medRxiv
Really proud to have worked with this amazing group of scientists to get an asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 testing program started at UC Berkeley last summer!
First postdoc preprint! We show that COVID-19 patients who develop ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) have impaired anti-bacterial immune signaling and changes in the lung microbiome weeks before the onset of VAP https://t.co/VOiMn9Puqz
