Research Focus
I am interested in how natural products and nanoparticles can be used as antimicrobials to fight multidrug resistance pathogens and to analyze cellular mechanisms that underline their antimicrobial activities. Furthermore, I utilize Whole Genome Sequencing to determine genomic changes associated with resistance.
