Sheryl S. Justice

Sheryl S. Justice studies how bacteria such as uropathogenic Escherichia coli and Haemophilus influenzae cause urinary tract and ear infections, focusing on how these microbes adapt, evolve, and persist inside the host during infection. Her work also examines how the immune system responds to these infections and how natural compounds, such as those from cranberries, or nutritional/probiotic factors might help prevent or treat them. This research is relevant to students interested in microbiology, infectious disease, immunology, and translational approaches to bacterial infections.

Publication output has been modest but fairly steady over the last decade, with occasional gaps (e.g., 2021) and an average of under 2 papers per year in the most recent five years.
