Presentation / Conference Contribution
Taylor, C. (2019, July). Exploiting intracellular bacteria for medical biotechnology. Presented at FEMS Congress 2019, Glasgow, UK

Background: Intracellular bacteria have evolved elegant mechanisms to invade, manipulate, and survive in their hosts. Investigation of bacterial pathogenic mechanisms has helped us to understand, in many cases, how intracellular bacteria overcome hos...
