DESCRIPTION:Shipra Vaishnava\, PhD\nGlobal Health Institute RECRUITING SEM
 INAR\nNearly 100 million bacteria reside in our gut\, yet\, we rarely elic
 it a harmful immune and inflammatory response against them. How is such a 
 peaceful coexistence achieved? My interest is in studying the interactions
  between microbes and the host at the molecular level that ensures host-mi
 crobe mutualism. In my post-doctoral work I unveiled a key mechanism by wh
 ich intestinal epithelial cells maintain homeostasis with bacteria by regu
 lating host bacterial contact with the mucosal surfaces. My future researc
 h focus is to study how commensal bacteria and diet derived signals regula
 te mucosal immunity in the gut.
