SYNOPSIS Biochemist/Molecular Biologist working on bacterial virulence systems. Main interest are type III secretion systems (T3SS) from EPEC, Y. pestis and P. aeruginosa. The second interest are antibacterials, therapeutics and prophylactics, for human pathogens. The work involves a lot of bioinformatics and computational chemistry methods to design small molecules blocking vital components of pathogens’ metabolism. For vaccines, the work involves a lot of synthetic and systems biology as tools to design next generation of bacterial vaccines.
