mBio paper has been accepted for publication!

I am very excited to announce that my first-author paper entitled "Bacterial Secretions of Nonpathogenic Escherichia coli Elicit Inflammatory Pathways: a Closer Investigation of Interkingdom Signaling" has been accepted for publication to mBio. In this paper, we perform a global transcriptome study of the effects of the bacterial 'secretome' (secreted products) on epithelial cells, revealing several activated signaling pathways. Further exploration will aid in the understanding of microbial disease, and modulation of existing interkingdom signaling networks may result in novel methods to combat infections. Thank you and congratulations to my fellow co-authors and collaborators.
