My life with Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans: A low level microbe and social “influencer” with distinctive attributes. My research has centered on studying an oral infectious disease that can have severe consequences
I am a tenured professor in the Department of Entomology at Rutgers University School of Environmental and Biological Sciences and a member of the graduate programs in Entomology, Ecology and
Current research in my laboratory is to understand how human commensal and pathogenic microbes communicate with intestinal mucosal cells, how environmental stressors alter such microbe-host interactions, and how altered microbe-host
Dr. Gaur has been working with children and families with HIV/AIDS since 1983 when the first child was diagnosed with AIDS in central New Jersey. She has been the Director
Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix substratum affects multiple cellular responses that include gene expression, differentiation, cell viability and morphology. Our long term goal is to identify the intracellular signals
The RTK-RAS-MAPK pathway is the most frequently altered signaling pathway at the rate of 46% across all cancer types. KRAS alternation is the top common event across all samples at
Bacteria as anticancer agents. For many years, bacteria and their toxins have been investigated for their anticancer activities. In the 1970s, bacteria (such as non-pathogenic Clostridium) were used for the
My lab focuses on the interaction of biofilms and predatory prokaryotes. Most bacteria found in natural or industrial settings persist in complex microbial communities attached to surfaces or associated with
Research in my lab is aimed to advance our knowledge of the complex role played by various cytokines in the regulation of the immune response to and in the pathogenesis
