Hao S, Tomic I, Lindsey B, Jagne Y, Hoschler K, Meijer A, et al.
bioRxiv . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39896552
Predicting individual vaccine responses remains a significant challenge due to the complexity and variability of immune processes. To address this gap, we developed , an open-source, data-driven framework implemented as...

Peno C, Jagne Y, Clerc M, Balcazar Lopez C, Armitage E, Sallah H, et al.
Lancet Microbe . 2025 Jan; 6(3):100971. PMID: 39832517
Background: Live attenuated influenza vaccines (LAIVs) alter nasopharyngeal microbiota in adults. It is poorly understood why LAIV immunogenicity varies across populations, but it could be linked to the microbiome. We...

Peno C, Lin T, Hislop M, Yolda-Carr D, Farjado K, York A, et al.
Microbiol Spectr . 2024 Jul; 12(9):e0059124. PMID: 39028185
Molecular methods have improved the sensitivity of the detection of pneumococcal carriage in saliva. However, they typically require sample culture enrichment and nucleic acid extraction prior to performing the detection...

Laxton C, Peno C, Hahn A, Allicock O, Perniciaro S, Wyllie A
Lancet Microbe . 2023 Jul; 4(10):e837-e850. PMID: 37516121
Despite its prominence in early scientific records, the usefulness of saliva as a respiratory specimen has been de-emphasised over the past century. However, due to its low cost and reliance...

Keeley A, Groves D, Armitage E, Senghore E, Jagne Y, Sallah H, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2023 May; 228(7):957-965. PMID: 37246259
Background: Immunity to Streptococcus pyogenes in high burden settings is poorly understood. We explored S. pyogenes nasopharyngeal colonization after intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) among Gambian children aged 24-59...

Rayack E, Askari H, Zirinsky E, Lapidus S, Sheikha H, Peno C, et al.
Front Public Health . 2023 Feb; 11:1003158. PMID: 36817891
While considerable attention was placed on SARS-CoV-2 testing and surveillance programs in the K-12 setting, younger age groups in childcare centers were largely overlooked. Childcare facilities are vital to communities,...

Sanyang B, I de Silva T, Kanteh A, Bojang A, Manneh J, de Steenhuijsen Piters W, et al.
EBioMedicine . 2022 Aug; 83:104227. PMID: 35988464
Background: Sepsis is a leading cause of neonatal death. Intrapartum azithromycin reduces neonatal nasopharyngeal carriage of potentially pathogenic bacteria, a prerequisite for sepsis. Early antibiotic exposure has been associated with...

Peno C, Armitage E, Clerc M, Balcazar Lopez C, Jagne Y, Drammeh S, et al.
Lancet Microbe . 2021 Dec; 2(12):e656-e665. PMID: 34881370
Background: Influenza and other respiratory viruses promote proliferation in the upper respiratory tract. We sought to investigate for what we believe is the first time, the effect of intranasal live...

Cornick J, Musicha P, Peno C, Seager E, Iroh Tam P, Bilima S, et al.
Microb Genom . 2021 Nov; 7(11). PMID: 34793293
A special-care neonatal unit from a large public hospital in Malawi was noted as having more frequent, difficult-to-treat infections, and a suspected outbreak of multi-drug-resistant was investigated using genomic characterisation....

Stenhouse G, Jere K, Peno C, Bengtsson R, Chinyama E, Mandolo J, et al.
Microb Genom . 2021 May; 7(5). PMID: 33945457
Increasing antimicrobial resistance and limited alternative treatments have led to fluoroquinolone-resistant strain inclusion on the WHO global priority pathogens list. In this study we characterized multiple isolates from Malawi with...
