Led by MPH student Sean O'Malley and with the assistance of Nigerian colleagues, our new paper reports on the molecular epidemiology of S. aureus in that country.
New paper! With PhD student Raj Nair, research assistant Dipendra Thapaliya, and high school summer student Yutao (Max) Su--Resistance to Zinc and Cadmium in Staphylococcus aureus of Human and Animal Origin.
From graduate student Jennifer McDanel's work:
McDanel JS, Ward MA, Leder L, Schweizer ML, Dawson JD, Diekema DJ, Smith TC, Chrischilles BA, Perencevich EN, Herwaldt LA. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Prevention Practices in Hospitals throughout a Rural State. American Journal of Infection Control, 42(8):868-73, 2014. Is there such a thing as an evolution-proof drug? I argue, no.
Have an article up today at Slate, discussing the recent finding of smallpox in NIH freezers, and other pox viruses which may still be lurking out there.
This won't be out until fall, but just had paper accepted with a high school student coauthor via the Belin Blank Secondary Student training program at UIowa. This was his poster last year. Raj Nair and Dipendra Thapaliya are the other authors.

New paper! A Review of Staphylococcal food-borne disease with my research assistant Dipendra Thapaliya and KSU MPH student Jhalka Kadariya.
With colleagues at the Iowa City VA hospital and the University of Iowa Department of Geography, a new paper is out ahead-of-print in Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology: Residential Proximity to Large Numbers of Swine in Feeding Operations Is Associated with Increased Risk of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Colonization at Time of Hospital Admission in Rural Iowa Veterans.
