Researchers at the University of Louisville are studying Yersinia pestis, the bacteria that causes bubonic and pneumonic plague, to understand its capacity to evade the immune system.

The study has received a $2.9m grant from the National Institutes of Health. A doctoral student also received a $100k grant from the NIH to research how Yersinia pestis changes vesicles produced by immune cells.
