Research summary
AI-generated

The publication record listed under this name spans two distinct areas: media and communication research (including how people psychologically and physiologically respond to advertising, media messages, and video content) and clinical microbiology/genomics (studies of antibiotic resistance and bacterial infections). The communication-focused work examines biological and cognitive measurement of how audiences process media, while the microbiology-focused work analyzes bacterial genomes, resistance, and infection surveillance. Note that these two threads likely reflect more than one author sharing a name, so prospective students should verify which body of work matches their interests.
