Changing Relationship Between Temperature and Pathogen Growth on Bats with White-nose Syndrome
… for the introduction of novel pathogens to naïve hosts, potentially leading to host extinction. Understanding mechanisms of host persistence is critical for effectively conserving species affected by EIDs. Our study investigated the disease dynamics of white-nose syndrome (WNS), caused by the …

Predicting Toxin-Antitoxin Systems Responsible for Host-Induced Persistence of Burkholderia pseudomallei
… antibiotics to clear a pathogen is partly due to persistence, a mechanism employed by bacteria to enter a dormant state and evade the effects of antibiotics and host defenses. Toxin-antitoxin systems (TAS) have been identified as important modulators of persistence and targeting them provides an …
