Areas of Research

Antimicrobial resistance and One Health
The premise of One Health is that the health of humans, animals, and ecosystems are interdependent. It entails addressing complex social, biological, and ecological concerns, such as antimicrobial resistance, through a coordinated, transdisciplinary, and holistic approach. Using a One Health approach, my research team investigates the interspecies transmission of antimicrobial-resistant organisms between animals and humans. Our objective is to implement antimicrobial stewardship programs in veterinary medicine that will effectively reduce antimicrobial resistance in both animals and humans.
