Kaylynn (PennVet class of ‘21) spent the summer of 2018 in the lab as a NIH-BI research fellow. She was the first person in our lab to profile the microbiome in a large collection of stool samples generated by the PennVet Clinical Parasitology lab from dogs with defined parasite infections. Her data showed a clear role for natural parasite infections in shaping the microbiome, and really set the stage for future work in the lab leading to this paper.
