Excited to share our work out at @cellcellpress showing how key differences in vaginal bacterial fatty acid metabolism may be leveraged to alter the vaginal #microbiome to improve health outcomes for women globally.

Wonderful work @mzhu_ology! And thanks to all our fantastic collaborators!.
Excited to share our preprint on metabolic differences in the vaginal #microbiome. We find key differences in fatty acid metabolism among #Lactobacillus species & leverage those findings to identify a potential new therapy for bacterial vaginosis (BV) & #WomensHealth 🧵 (1/n).

Congrats to lead authors Bjorn Corleis and @constantine_sci for wonderful work elucidating mechanisms by which smoking increases TB risk. Yet another reason not to 🚬.
New paper! Tuberculosis (TB) has infected >20% of the world’s population, with tobacco smoking as a leading risk factor for active TB. How do environmental exposures like smoking shape immune function, tissue microenvironments, and disease risk? (1/n)

Wonderful and very deserved recognition of your work @mzhu_ology.
Excited that Bill Gates named us one of top 5 innovations at Grand Challenges! We uncovered species-specific metabolic differences to identify new targets for Bacterial Vaginosis. From basic biological discovery to potential new therapies!

Great opportunity for promising physician-scientists to accelerate your pathway to independence!.
Applications are open on a rolling basis for the Ragon Early Independence Fellows Program, a fellowship for PhDs, MDs, or MD/PhDs who want to start their independent research career without the traditional postdoc. More info & application link on our site:
