applied  microbiology  research  lab

Our lab works towards a systems understanding of pathogen transmission: integrating host, pathogen and environmental aspects.

We combine patient cohorts with novel technologies to have an innovative translational research setting. In vitro and in vivo data is further used in computational models.

Welcome Ana Gabriella!!!

We are very pleased to welcome Ana Gabriella from Colombia. Ana will spend a year in the lab to pursue her bachelor's thesis and internship, she will work heavily on the AMR Evo project with Elisa.

Observerships @AMRlab

We recently had a super motivated high school student, Caroline, doing a 2 weeks observership with us. Caroline followed our technicians, got a good insight into how a microbiology lab works, learned different techniques, methods and machines and impressed us all with her curiosity and proactivity... We hope we could strengthen that spark that she has. Hopefully, we have another encounter with her as a future Biology student! :D 

If you are a high schooler, interested in (micro)biology, and eager to get a real-life insight into how things work in a research group, feel free to contact us! 

Welcome Anna Diversi!!!
