賞

1. 2015

   ショウ賞 — 生命科学と医学

   生物学

   For elucidating the molecular mechanism of quorum sensing, a process whereby bacteria communicate with each other and which offers innovative ways to interfere with bacterial pathogens or to modulate the microbiome for health applications.

2. 2022

   ウルフ賞 — 化学

   化学

   for her work elucidating the role of chemical communication between bacteria. She has made important discoveries revealing how quorum sensing is used by bacteria both for virulence and for communicating across species.

3. 2023

   カナダ・ガードナー国際賞

   生物学

   For their discoveries of how bacteria communicate with each other and surrounding non-bacterial cells, providing a new paradigm for how microbes behave and yielding novel avenues for therapeutics against infectious diseases.
