These somewhat conflicting functions are performed through an interplay between epithelium, immune cells, and the commensal microbiota. For example, commensal microbiota breaks down hard-to-digest food so that epithelium can take up the nutrients, while immune cells display tolerance to the commensal microbiota (<i>i.e.<\/i> immune cells don\u2019t perceive the microbiota as \u2018foreign\u2019). Early in life, in the first year or so, this delicate balance is set up. Indeed, the microbiota changes from a few pioneering species to a complex ecosystem, epithelium matures so that it can handle the change from milk to solids, and immune cells are educated by the microbiota to provide tolerance throughout life. Me and my team are specifically interested in the role of the epithelium in these processes. We study how epithelium develops in this early-life stage, and what factors are responsible for its transition. In addition, we study how epithelium changes during an infection where, in concert with immune cells, they provide protection by producing effector molecules such as antimicrobials. In this presentation, I will highlight our work within this rapidly evolving and exciting field of science.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Presenter<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4502\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-240x360.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-240x360.jpg 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-160x240.jpg 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/Meno-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Menno Oudhoff, PhD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Associate Professor<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Department of Health Sciences<\/p>\n<p>Carleton University<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/healthsciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/22-301-Health-Science-Poster-October.pdf\">22-301 Health Science Poster October<\/a><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"\">\n\t<p>\n\t\t<a class=\"button__red button__red--solid\" href=\"https:\/\/carleton-ca.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tJcsfumpqTsuGNSqjyf8rNVORhYCPqdrn4qV#\/registration\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Register Here<\/a>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"daevent-type":[48],"event-audience":[],"event-featured":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.2 -
