Molecular typing of the pneumococcus and its application in epidemiology in sub-Saharan Africa
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Molecular typing of the pneumococcus has played a crucial role in understanding the epidemiology of the organism. However, most of what is known about molecular epidemiology of the pneumococcus pertains to the developed world.

Stem cell-derived brain-like endothelial cells to interrogate Streptococcus pneumoniae interaction with brain endothelium [PDF]
VirulenceStreptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is an opportunistic pathogen that remains the leading cause of bacterial meningitis worldwide. For meningitis to occur, pneumococcus must breach the blood-brain barrier (BBB), a highly specialized network of brain ...

Innate immunity and the pneumococcus [PDF]
Microbiology, 2006 The innate immune system provides a non-specific first line of defence against microbes and is crucial both in the development and effector stages of subsequent adaptive immune responses. Consistent with its importance, study of the innate immune system is a broad and fast-moving field.
