Medical Microbiology
Pathogens, AMR and host–microbe interactions.
SCIENCE FOR A HEALTHIER PLANET
Microbiology across
health, environment
and remediation.
I work at the intersection of medical microbiology, environmental microbiology, microbial ecology, One Health, bioremediation and omics to generate knowledge for healthier people and a more resilient planet.
I am currently undertaking doctoral research on free-living amoebae and microbial symbionts in hydrocarbon remediation and antimicrobial resistance dynamics.

RESEARCH THEMES
From microbes to global impact
I explore how microorganisms shape health, environments and resilient ecosystems — and how we can harness them for a cleaner, safer and healthier world.
Environmental Microbiology
Microbes in natural and polluted environments.
Free-living Amoebae & Symbionts
Amoebae–microbe interactions and their implications.
Bioremediation
Microbial solutions for pollution and environmental recovery.
Omics & Molecular Tools
Genomics, metagenomics and systems approaches.
One Health
Connecting human, microbial and environmental health.
