Research Interest
My research is directed toward understanding the molecular mechanism of how bacterial pathogens, especially causative agents of food-borne diseases, induce pathological alterations in host cells. Using genetic and biochemical approach, we are analyzing a sensor system of enteropathogenic E. coli, which is utilized by the bacteria to regulate the production and secretion of virulence factors in response to the host.
