Stephen O. Opiyo works on computational and genomic approaches to biological problems, with recent work concentrated on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumannii, including mapping resistance patterns using geographic information systems (GIS) and surveillance data to find new drug targets. His broader body of work spans plant pathogen genomics (fungi affecting rice, wheat, and coffee), livestock genetics, and bioinformatics tool development, reflecting a general interest in applying genomic and data-analysis methods across agricultural and health-related organisms.

Publication output has been fairly steady at 1-4 papers per year over the past decade, with a recent uptick in 2024-2026 driven largely by AMR-focused research outputs.
