Science on Tap: A Microscopic Menace Tackling A Bacterial Disease in Sheep and Goats – What We’ve Learned about Mycoplasma ovipneumonia
This talk explores Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae, a bacterium that rarely causes respiratory disease in domestic sheep and goats but poses a deadly threat to their wild counterparts. When domestic herds come in contact with bighorn sheep, the pathogen can spread, leading to severe pneumonia outbreaks impacting wild populations.
Brown Bag Lunch Series: Fighting fire with fire: using a mild virus to prevent lethal virus infection in the respiratory tract
Session led by Tanya Miura Our initial project on the CMCI COBRE award was designed to identify parameters that determine disease outcomes during respiratory viral coinfection in a mouse model. Through this work we identified multiple virus pairs that resulted in reduced disease severity upon coinfection, which depends upon the viral doses and order of…
