RESEARCH INTEREST

The goal of my research is to develop and apply powerful new multi-omics and computational approaches to gain insights into the chemical and molecular machinery of multidrug-resistant bacterium and other diseases. 

In selecting research areas to focus on, I am drawn to research problems in which I can solve fundamental problems due to antimicrobial resistance while also pushing the state-of-the-art in -omics technology to identify a new class of drugs and drug targets.

Other research activities include validation of protein biomarkers in COPD patient samples and biorefining of plant feedstocks to fine and bulk chemicals including biofuels.
