Genomic, Genetic, and Functional Interrogation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Outbreak Strains 

Saelens, Joseph William (2017)
In the past 200 years, tuberculosis (TB) has caused more deaths than any other infectious disease and currently infects more people than it has at any other time in human history. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the etiological ...

Genome evolution in the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus deuterogattii 

Billmyre, Robert Blake (2017)
One of the key challenges of the 21st century is the emergence and reemergence of pathogens. Fungal pathogens represent an important portion of this problem, as the cohort of immunocompromised patients susceptible to common ...

Using Single-Cell Analyses to Uncover Transcriptional Heterogeneity in Plasmodium falciparum 

Walzer, Katelyn Ann (2018)
Malaria persists as a global health problem, with 212 million cases and 429,000 deaths worldwide in 2015 alone. It is caused by the apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium, which follows a complex life cycle that consists of multiple ...

Diversity of Species and Sexual Reproduction in the Fungal Genus Cryptococcus 

Passer, Andrew Ryan (2019)
Speciation is a central mechanism of biological diversification. While speciation is well studied in plants and animals, in comparison, relatively little is known about speciation in fungi. One fungal model is the Cryptococcus ...

Mechanisms of CD8+ T Cell Mediated Virus Inhibition in HIV-1 Virus Controllers 

Payne, Tamika Leola (2014)
CD8+ T cells are associated with long term control of virus replication to low or undetectable levels in a population of HIV+ therapy-naïve individuals known as virus controllers (VCs; <5000 RNA copies/ml and CD4+ lymphocyte ...
