Biography

Dr. Nicole J. De Nisco is an Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Texas at Dallas and an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Department of Urology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Her laboratory studies host-pathogen-microbiome interactions that underlie recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI) leveraging advanced imaging, whole genome metagenomic, and mass spectrometry-based metabolomic techniques. The De Nisco lab seeks to inform new therapies for recurrent UTI by interrogating spatial and metabolic relationship between the urinary microbiota and the human host. Additional ongoing collaborative projects in the De Nisco lab are focusing on developing novel whole cell UTI vaccine preparation strategies utilizing metal organic frameworks and new cytokine-based electrochemical UTI diagnostic tools. Dr. De Nisco completed her Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She earned her Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Molecular Biology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and completed her postdoctoral training at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.
