Research summary

This researcher's recent publication record actually reflects work in microbial genomics and food safety, focused on tracking antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli using whole-genome sequencing and nanopore sequencing technology. The research emphasizes a 'One Health' approach, which studies how resistant bacteria and their resistance genes (often carried on mobile DNA elements called plasmids) move between animals, food, and humans. Note: the listed OpenAlex topic labels (chemical physics, aromatic compounds) do not match the actual publication content shown, which is entirely in microbiology and genomic epidemiology.
