"The aldehyde hypothesis”

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a human-exclusive pathogen, is arguably the deadliest microbe on the planet. While SARS-CoV-2 killed more people than M. tuberculosis for a year or two, it is estimated M. tuberculosishas killed 1-2 million people yearly for millennia.

Lund Critical Debate

Climate change has a disproportionate impact on the world’s most vulnerable populations, yet climate crises also impact people across the full spectrum of wealth and power.

“Impact of phages on cholera and their use in preventing infection”

Phages play major roles in the ecology and evolution of bacteria, including many human pathogens. We found that cholera patients often shed stools with high titers of one of three species of  phages. We provide evidence that these three phages prey extensively on V. cholerae within the human gastrointestinal tract, and impact the infection, dissemination, transmission and evolution of V. cholerae...
