    Uncovering the role of skin microbiome and immune response in cutaneous leishmaniasis

    Two new studies led by Phillip Scott of the School of Veterinary Medicine and Elizabeth Grice of the Perelman School of Medicine demonstrate how bacteria found in leishmaniasis skin lesions…

    Study shows promise for iNKT cell platform to treat cancer

    Researchers from the School of Veterinary Medicine and Perelman School of Medicine have shown that invariant natural killer T cells from a healthy donor can persist in MHC-mismatched canines, demonstrating…

    Removing the barrier surrounding solid tumors clears path for T cells

    Penn researchers uncover a new way to target solid tumors. Using CAR T cells to remove cancer-associated fibroblasts surrounding pancreatic tumors allows T cells to infiltrate and attack the tumor…

    Genetic switch turns tumor suppressor into oncogene in colorectal cancer

    Researchers from the School of Veterinary Medicine have shown that an enzyme that suppresses early-stage colorectal cancer switches to become an oncogene as the cancer progresses.

    Social ecology and community work in the Galápagos

    Daniel Beiting, PhD, associate director of the Institute for Infectious and Zoonotic Diseases, expanded his work this summer in the Galápagos, giving Stephanie Sila, V’25, an ideal opportunity to gain…

    Dipti Pitta with a cow.

    Could we breed cows that emit less methane?

    In a new study, researchers from the School of Veterinary Medicine identified attributes of low-methane-emitting dairy cows that could be used as targets for selective breeding.

    What fossils tell us about the dining habits of dinosaurs

    More than a century of research is vividly shared in ‘An Illustrated Guide to Dinosaur Feeding Biology’ by Ali Nabavizadeh of the School of Veterinary Medicine and David B. Weishampel…

    Cross-disciplinary collaboration for a healthier planet

    The Environmental Innovations Initiative announces a third round of funded research communities to catalyze interdisciplinary research at Penn, investigating issues from regenerative agriculture to project-based learning for global climate justice.

    From outbreaks to breakthroughs: Tackling infectious and zoonotic diseases

    Three years into what feels like a never-ending pandemic, science news has become more than an afterthought to many; it’s a ring buoy for those drowning in a sea of…

    The immune system does battle in the intestines to keep bacteria in check

    New research from Penn Vet demonstrates that Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, a relative of the bacterial pathogen that causes plague, triggers the body’s immune system to form lesions in the intestines called…
