Research at Dartmouth Medical School using Staphylococcus
aureus
The following information is from the Microbiology and Immunology
Department web site
.
Molecular Pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus
:
Dr. Cheung's lab is interested in understanding the regulation of virulence
factors of the human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus. The development
of multi-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus is a recognized
public health hazard. One area of research focuses on understanding virulence
factors that allow Staphylococcus aureus to invade and persist
within human pulmonary epithelial cells.
