A synthesis of our current understanding of host-fungal interactions in vaginal candidiasis, the most common human fungal infection. By @jessiemacalpine, way to start your fellowship at @NIAIDNews Jessie! @cellhostmicrobe sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Great work, Kathleen! Many congratulations!

A great lab to train! Amazing science, great mentoring!

@NIH experts from the @NIAIDNews , @NIDDKgov ), and @theNCI discuss the case of a young girl with severe multi-organ autoimmunity, highlighting the role of excess IFN-gamma in APS-1/APECED. Watch the full lecture: videocast.nih.gov/watch=55398 #ClinicalCenterGrandRounds #Autoimmunity

Fun to write this review on Candida auris infections @NEJM with @AnuradhaMyco! Thanks Anu! nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Our recent study out today in @PLOSPathogens identified cell type specific immune responses to Candida auris skin infection using single cell transcriptomics. Thank you @LionakisLab, Mihai Netea and Vinod for collaborating in this study ! journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…

Thanks @NIAIDNews for highlighting our work!

The #NIAID-led discovery of a gene variant causing some cases of #APECED, a deadly inherited #RareDisease, will facilitate earlier diagnosis and medical care that may prolong lives and has led to the design of a potential treatment: go.nih.gov/POeRr5G #NIH 📷 Credit: NHGRI
