Our team spans multiple disciplines, focusing on the intricate workings of microbial organisms. We investigate microorganisms across scales - from their atomic-level architecture to their complex relationships with human hosts and associated illnesses. Addressing these research questions will both deepen our knowledge of microbial biology's core principles and help solve critical global issues. These pressing concerns involve combating rising antibiotic resistance in pathogenic bacteria, creating solutions for newly emerging infections, discovering treatments for currently incurable diseases, and harnessing microbes for more sustainable agricultural and industrial applications.
