Interplay between host-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions in cystic fibrosis
Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, 2020 The respiratory tract of individuals with cystic fibrosis is host to polymicrobial infections that persist for decades and lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Improving our understanding of CF respiratory infections requires coordinated efforts from researchers in the fields of microbial physiology, genomics, and ecology, as well as epithelial

A molecular perspective on the limits of life: Enzymes under pressure [PDF]
, 2016 From a purely operational standpoint, the existence of microbes that can grow under extreme conditions, or "extremophiles", leads to the question of how the molecules making up these microbes can maintain both their structure and function. While microbes

Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2010 SUMMARY Platforms for pathogen discovery have improved since the days of Koch and Pasteur; nonetheless, the challenges of proving causation are at least as daunting as they were in the late 1800s. Although we will almost certainly continue to accumulate low-hanging fruit, where simple relationships will be found between the ...

Microbe–microbe interactions during Clostridioides difficile infection
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2020 Clostridioides difficile is the leading cause of hospital-acquired gastrointestinal infections and a major public health burden in the United States. C. difficile infection causes a spectrum of disease from mild diarrhea to severe complications such as pseudomembranous colitis, toxic megacolon and death.
