Mithu Chandra Roy, MS, DVM
Seeking a PhD position
Roy worked on the molecular characterization of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the animal-environment human interfaces. Now, he is also focusing on the immune mechanisms underneath the MRSA infected asthmatic burdens in-vivo through adopting the murine models.
Publications
Tonmoy Chowdhury, MS, DVM
(vet.tonmoy@gmail.com)
Seeking a PhD position
Chowdhury conducted his MS research focusing on the detailed analysis of Multidrug Resistance (MDR) Shiga Toxin Producing E. coli (STEC) prevalence in Bovine Sub-Clinical Mastitic (SCM) Milk. Currently, he is interested to investigate the intricate network of immune systems related to udder health, and ultimate food safety.

Md. Mahmudul Hasan, MS, DVM
Seeking a PhD position
During his MS works, Hasan characterized the probiotics traits of L. acidophilus, and revealed the antimicrobial profiles of the acidocin (Bacteriocins) against common MDR bacteria like E. coli, S. aureus, K. pneumonia, and S. enteritidis. Using the mice models, he is now interested to detect the immune-regulatory roles of L. acidophilus in the progression of non-IgE mediated milk allergy.

Tafazzal Hossain, MS, DVM
Entrepreneur
Hossain characterized the super-antigenic MRSA from different commercial cheeses; particularly those are prepared from un-pasteurized milk (raw milk). Since, Austogram cheese (directly prepared from raw milk) possesses a serious public health issues, Mr. Hossain trying to delineate the AMR and ARGs association with the consumption of cheese.
