Our microbiology studies cover diverse fields including food, beverages, agriculture, and healthcare. We investigate pathogen behavior at molecular levels, examining their interactions with hosts and survival in various environments, while developing microbial control solutions throughout the food production process.
A core area of our research employs molecular biology techniques to study microbial activity in intricate settings like the digestive system of mammals. These investigations seek to enhance knowledge about how dietary changes affect gut bacteria and livestock productivity.
Our team possesses specialized knowledge in bacteriophage biology and genetics - viruses that target specific bacteria - and their use as biological control tools and diagnostic methods in food safety and veterinary medicine.
We coordinate cross-disciplinary research initiatives assessing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threats in farming operations, particularly dairy and poultry production systems.
