Editor-in-Chief Cheryl A. Nickerson, PhD
Professor of Life Sciences, Biodesign Institute
Arizona State University
AZ, USA
Cheryl's multidisciplinary research blends microbiology, tissue engineering and physics to mimic the dynamic interactions between the host, its microenvironment and the pathogen that led to infection and disease. She focuses on bacterial pathogen and human host cellular and molecular responses to physical forces that are physiologically relevant to those found in vivo during the natural course of infection, and how these responses are related to infectious disease. Her team has developed several innovative model pathogenesis systems to study these processes, including 3-D organotypic tissue culture models as predictive platforms to study host-pathogen interactions, and approaches that characterize pathogen responses to physiological fluid shear forces encountered in the infected host, as well as in the microgravity environment of spaceflight.
