Excited to share our latest work studying pneumococcal pneumonia. We found that pneumococcal population structures undergo massive changes within the lung. This bacteriocin-mediated turnover of the population "promotes" pneumococcal pneumonia nature.com/articles/s4200…

🚨Excited to share our new study below!🚨 1/7: Childhood mortality from bacterial respiratory & enteric pathogens remains a global concern. But what compromises infants' ability to fight infections? Our study delves into the immune deficiencies intrinsic to early age.

Why are infants susceptible to invasive pneumococcal diseases? Excited to share our latest work led by @LokkenToyli which explores this question and elucidates the age-dependent mechanisms that drive pneumococcal spread from the mucosa. @PLOSPathogens journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

Great piece of work from @WeiserLabNYU the age dependent mechanisms of pneumococcal disease pathogenicity. #pneumococcus #respiratoryinfections #infantmortality

Pleased to share some of our latest work available online now in @cellhostmicrobe. In this work, we discovered that quorum sensing induced bacteriocins mediate intra-strain competition in pneumococcus during colonization and transmission. authors.elsevier.com/c/1g5cb6t8JEjA…

Excited to share our latest from @suryad26, now on @biorxiv! We describe the unexpected role of BlpC in driving intra-strain competitive success, with physiological consequences on ecology of the colonizing strain and importantly, transmission to new hosts! Tweetorial below.

Happy to share this manuscript where we study the population dynamics of pneumococcus during colonization and transmission. We used chromosomal barcoding to examine how the population structure of pneumococcus changes following infection. (1/n)
