Vaginal community state type stability across nine months of station isolation
A research poster from the School of Underlying Conditions follows eleven members of a polar overwintering station's crew through forty weeks of weekly self-collected vaginal swabs, finding community state type switches fell from 0.20 per participant-week during the summer changeover to 0.04 across the sealed winter before rising again after the first flight.
