Research summary
AI-generated

Susan Vaughn Grooters works in biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, with a focus on antibiotic resistance in bacteria, food safety, and the environmental spread of pharmaceuticals and antimicrobial-resistant organisms (such as Staphylococcus and Enterobacteriaceae/Cronobacter). Her work examines how resistance genes move through bacterial populations across human, animal, and environmental settings (a 'One Health' approach) and how food processing practices can limit pathogen and virus transmission. This research area would suit students interested in microbiology, food safety science, and public health aspects of antibiotic resistance.
