Video Summary
Dr. Matthew Williams from the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine presents research by student Jackie Botafuco on developing biotherapeutics for radiotherapy-induced dysbiosis. The study aimed to address the impact of radiation therapy on microbiomes, particularly the gut and skin. Jackie screened environmental samples for microorganisms with antagonistic properties against human pathogens, identifying several promising strains. Her research highlighted the UV-resistant capabilities of lysinibacillus, a bacterium with potential therapeutic applications in radiotherapy. Ongoing studies include antibiotic susceptibility to ensure safe application. Dr. Williams welcomes queries and will forward questions to Jackie.
