Our research interest in RESIST is to analyse clinical biomedical data sets from patients with infectious diseases studied together with other RESIST PIs, by development and application of suitable computational methodologies. These methods combine techniques from bioinformatics, machine learning and phylogenetic \/ population genetic inference. We focus specifically on biofilm formation in clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, inflammatory diseases linked to the gut microbiome, as well as immune evasion of Hepatitis C viruses.<\/p>\n

Our aim is to produce testable hypotheses, such as sets of key sites or relevant genes associated with the presence of a disease, of antibiotic resistance or pathogenic evasion of immune defense.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
