Research summary

Sharon M. Erdman's work focuses on the treatment of infectious diseases, particularly optimizing antibiotic use for serious bacterial infections such as MRSA bloodstream infections, bone/joint infections, and central nervous system infections. Much of the research examines how antibiotics are dosed and monitored (e.g., vancomycin dosing strategies) and how outpatient antibiotic therapy programs and hospital antimicrobial stewardship tools affect patient outcomes. This work is relevant to students interested in clinical pharmacy, infectious disease treatment, and hospital-based antibiotic management.
