Coming from a GBS Mama, thank you and your team so very much for all the efforts and research in this disease. I am so grateful for all of you!

Such a fascinating project! I noticed on your Global Collection map that some of the far northern areas of the world haven't participated yet. Hopefully they will! Would be interesting to know how the genetic diversity of those areas (some of which seem to generally have lower rates of GBS colonization) differ. Thank you for sharing about the JUNO project for GBS Community Days 2023!

As a GBS stillbirth mother, I truly appreciate the work you and your team are doing! How do you find funding for such a project? How did you end up being funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation?

Thank you. We were lucky enough to get funding from the BMGF as the project contributes to one of the Gates Foundation Strategic Goals

Such important work! Those GBS vaccines will be so important in the prevention of stillbirths and neonatal deaths ❤️
