Research Interest
Primary field of Specialization: Molecular Microbiology and Infectious Disease Research Interests: My research interests lie in analysing the molecular mechanisms underlying the development of chronic, antimicrobial resistant and therefore often difficult-to-treat bacterial infections. The establishment and resistance of such chronic infections are influenced by a combination of host-derived factors, host-pathogen and inter-pathogen interactions, and other environmental factors and signals.
