Happy Graduation Day! We’re proud to spotlight our graduate, Caroline Page, who earned her Ph.D. in Infectious Diseases. After graduation, she will begin a postdoctoral research position at Mount Sinai in Manhattan! We can’t wait to see what you achieve!
#UGAVetMed#UGAIDIS
Influenza A & B viruses cause up to 710,000 hospitalizations and 52,000 deaths annually in the US. However, research from #UGAVetMed Ph.D student Caroline K. Page predicts that Influenza B—which only infects humans—could be on the brink of disappearing.
