Applying genome sequencing to bacterial pathogens

My group use microbial sequencing as a tool to gain insights into bacterial evolution, to determine reservoirs and transmission of antimicrobial resistance, and to define its potential utility in diagnostic and public health microbiology.

Keywords: Antimicrobial resistance / outbreak investigation / pathogen genome sequencing / melioidosis / Burkholderia pseudomallei

Subject area(s): Genomic & Computational Biology | Microbiology, Virology & Pathogens | Molecular Medicine
