Research summary
AI-generated

Stephen J. Jordan studies sexually transmitted infections and infections of the urinary and reproductive tract, with a focus on pathogens such as Chlamydia trachomatis and Mycoplasma genitalium. His work covers how the body's immune system responds to these infections, how the microbes living in the genitourinary tract relate to health and disease, and how well treatments and diagnostic tests perform. Several projects also examine antimicrobial resistance and non-invasive ways to monitor infection.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
