What's next? We're working on host and microbe signaling pathways activated by these BCs. I'm so happy I get to work with an incredible team of lab members @GopinathLab @HarvardIID and collaborators beyond. This was a big team effort and so, so fun to figure out. (8/8)

We know most vaginal lactobacilli are associated with health and reduced inflammation (L. iners is an interesting exception), but how? We found that supernatant from L. crispatus but not L. iners suppressed inflammatory signaling downstream of TLR2,3 and 4 activation. (2/8)
