With great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Matthew Mescher. Matt retired in 2015 but continued to be a valued member of CFI. He will be sorely missed & fondly remembered for his leadership & contributions to science. Our thoughts are with his family at this time.

Our paper in @cellhostmicrobe is now online! We propose that mice with diverse microbial history make a better preclinical model for evaluating vaccines. 💉🐁🦠 @JessicaFiegePhD @LangloisLab @Masopust_Vezys @Sathi_W @willmatchett authors.elsevier.com/c/1e0MF…
