Overview
I am a clinical microbiologist with a background in molecular microbiology, structural biology, and infectious disease diagnostics. My work has focused on designing and validating assays, strengthening laboratory regulation and compliance, and advancing approaches to detect and understand antimicrobial resistance. I enjoy bridging scientific discovery with clinical practice, and I am committed to developing reliable, patient-centered diagnostics that support both clinicians and patients in the fight against infectious diseases.

The carbapenem inoculum effect provides insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying carbapenem resistance in the Enterobacterales.
Journal Article mBio · November 12, 2025 Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are important pathogens that can develop resistance via multiple molecular mechanisms, including hydrolysis or reduced antibiotic influx. Identifying these mechanisms can improve pathogen surveillance, infection ... Full text Link to item CiteEducation, Training & Certifications
