The Hurricane Microbiome Project

labroots

The Alkek Center for Metagenomics and Microbiome Research (CMMR) at Baylor College of Medicine is pursuing numerous research and development efforts in the study of how the microbiome impacts human disease and how this knowledge can be translated into novel therapeutics and diagnostics. Among these efforts is a new study involving the impact of major disasters, such as Hurricane Harvey, where associated flooding and other environmental exposures to chemicals or pathogens (e.g. mold), and their impact on human health, may be reflected in the microbiome of exposed individuals.

T-Cell Priming Targets Identified with Help from Single-Cell Genomics

It would seem that the fields of cell and molecular biology are steeped in irony. While we are taught about the inner workings of a single cell, we have only very recently begun to view the impact of an individual cell without lumping it into a common collective. For instance, advanced single-cell genomic techniques have allowed scientists to study disease from an entirely new perspective—a direction that is readily apparent within immunology research. As such, investigators are now able to look at individual T-cell phenotypes and begin to group them based on how they are immunologically primed.
