"Vaccines at Guelph"

Professor Mario Monteiro
University of Guelph

Abstract: Our research efforts focus on the discovery and use of microbial-specific polysaccharides to control
gastric bacterial infections in humans. Two of our main targets are Clostridium difficile (antibiotic associated
diarrhea) and Campylobacter jejuni (traveller’s diarrhea).

Through interactive exercises and discussions, the Men’s Circle will explore some of the ways in which men can become leaders in creating a safer campus for everyone.
