Antimicrobial resistance trends have been a long standing interest of mine. I am particularly interested in the origins of microorganisms that acquire multiple antibiotic resistance. Individuals infected with drug-resistant organisms are more likely to have longer hospital stays and require treatment with second- or third-generation drugs that may be more toxic, and/or more expensive. Therefore, the intent of my research is to utilize molecular techniques to study the epidemiology of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO), as a means of prevention and control of infections caused by these microbes. Ideally, these methods will lead to an improved efficacy in the characterization of antimicrobial resistant organisms isolated in the clinical microbiology laboratory.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia GCC Consortium for Antimicrobial Resistance (GCC AMR)  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Associate Professor Pathology UT Medical Branch at Galveston
