This week @NickFirst13 (@monica_gestal lab) presented an update on his research. @LSUHS @LSUHSResearch @LSUHS_PhD

Congratulations to @NickFirst13 on his recent publication in @CellReports. His paper discusses how Bordetella species block eosinophil recruitment to suppress mucosal immunity. Check it out here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37883230/ @LSUHS @LSUHSResearch @LSUHS_PhD @monica_gestal

Bordetella spp. block eosinophil recruitment to suppress the generation of early mucosal protection dlvr.it/Sxy6Jw

Hey y’all! Check out our work just published in @CellReports! Huge thanks to the incredible @monica_gestal, @kmparrish9887 and our collaborators. You all are rockstars 🎸 Here’s to a many more publications from the Gestal Lab!!! cell.com/cell-reports/f…

New paper! Bordetella spp. utilize the type 3 secretion system to manipulate the VIP/VPAC2 signaling and promote colonization and persistence of the three classical Bordetella in the lower respiratory tract dlvr.it/StLwjt

I can’t believe it! I dreamt with this moment since the first time I came to an ASM conference. Come to the in-depth symposium Saturday at 1:45 and hear about the cool things that my amazing students can do. They are the people that makes magic happen. ❤️

My heart is broken with the recent lost of our beloved Ken Peterson. I will always remember him telling us all his funny stories during his PhD. The Vibrio field has lost one of the greatest. Always in our hearts ❤️ Ken you will be missed ❤️

We truly lost a special one. May his soul continue to rest in peace in God's bossom. Amen
