Our Focus
Research Areas
Exploring enteric pathogens through microbiology, molecular investigation, and data-informed public health research.
Molecular Epidemiology
Characterizing circulating genotypes, strains, and genetic markers to understand pathogen diversity and patterns of transmission.
Diagnostics and Genomics
Combining classical molecular methods with sequence-based genomics to improve pathogen detection and characterization.
Public Health Impact
Connecting laboratory findings with epidemiological data to investigate infection outcomes and antimicrobial resistance in human and environmental samples.
Who We Are
Research with a public-health purpose
The Enteric Pathogens Intelligence Lab investigates real-world infectious disease problems by combining classical molecular genetics, advanced sequence-based genomics, and epidemiological data from human patients.
We aim to track genotypes and strains of diarrhoea-causing viral and bacterial pathogens among children, while characterizing the distribution and genetic markers of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens in human and environmental samples. By integrating laboratory findings with epidemiological information, we seek to understand pathogen diversity, relevant confounding factors, and infection outcomes.
Our central research question
“What is the true diversity of enteric pathogens, and how does that diversity influence the outcome of each infection event?”
