A Warning Against Antibiotic Treatment for Gastrointestinal Non-Typhoidal Salmonella Infections in Immunocompetent Adults: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

is a common pathogen that causes foodborne illness worldwide. There is limited evidence describing the treatment of gastrointestinal non-typhoidal (NTS). Clinicians are inclined to treat these infections with antibiotics, but the use of antibiotics may paradoxically worsen gastrointestinal symptoms and prolong bacterial stool shedding.

Workshop-based learning and networking: a scalable model for research capacity strengthening in low- and middle-income countries.

Science education and research have the potential to drive profound change in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through encouraging innovation, attracting industry, and creating job opportunities. However, in LMICs, research capacity is often limited, and acquisition of funding and access to state-of-the-art technologies is challenging. The Alliance for Global Health and Science (the Alliance) was founded as a partnership between the University of California, Berkeley (USA) and Makerere University (Uganda), with the goal of strengthening Makerere University's capacity for bioscience research.
