This study identifies the Efg1 regulon active in C. albicans during growth in human urine, validates its clinical relevance in catheter samples, and characterizes key downstream factors involved in fungal CAUTI.

This study identifies metabolic cross-talk between Enterococcus faecalis and Klebsiella pneumoniae that promotes their persistence in catheter-associated urinary tract infections.

This study develops and tests GmPcides, dihydrothiazolo ring-fused 2-pyridone compounds, showing efficacy against Streptococcus pyogenes SSTI and biofilm formation.
