| My Research Interest in RESIST |
My research interest concern understanding how genetic variants that distinguish members of the same bacterial species („strains“) affect their phenotype, in the environment or in vivo. As bacterial strains can differ from each other by more than half their genetic content, these differences have the potential to influence important processes such as pathogenicity and antimicrobial resistance. Lastly, I am interested in how these differences across strains can affect the evolution of antimicrobial resistance, particularly its speed and predictability.
