Nina Gao is a PhD candidate in the Biomedical Sciences program at UC San Diego, where she studies infectious disease and how a type of bacteria interacts with its host. Spoiler alert: we’re the host, and it can get kinda gross.  Nina is working to develop a vaccine for these bacteria before they become resistant to antibiotics.  You can find Nina on Twitter @biologist_nina
