Research summary
AI-generated

Jenessa A. Winston studies how gut bacteria interact with bile acids (chemicals made by the liver that help digest fat) and how this relationship affects gastrointestinal disease in animals, especially infections like Clostridioides difficile. Her work spans laboratory mouse models, companion animal (dog and cat) clinical research, and studies of the gut microbiome's role in disease and recovery, including topics like fecal microbiota transplantation and diarrhea.
