Research Interests:
– Microbial natural products and drug discovery for infectious diseases, specifically for tuberculosis, non-tuberculosis mycobacteria, and Lyme disease
– Development of high throughput workflows for the isolation and prioritization of slow-growing or rare antibiotic-producing microbes from underrepresented environments
– Development of analytical and chromatographic techniques to identify bioactive compounds for scale-up fermentations and lead compound/s identification.
