Dr Anthony Sifuna is a Lecturer of Biochemistry at the School of Medicine at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology. His Research interests include pathogen-host interactions; One-Health; antimicrobial resistance; antimicrobial stewardship and digital diagnostics. I am involved in investigating the role of wastewater and other environmental sources in recruiting and maintaining antimicrobial resistances among the Enterobacteriaceae in the environment. At clinical level, I investigate pathogens involved in Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) at Kakamega County, Teaching and Referral Hospital. In these studies, we attempt to understand the drivers and determinants of virulence and antibiotic resistance in hospital settings, in addition to monitoring and surveillance activities. The information generated has been used to strengthen the antimicrobial stewardship program at KCTRH. I am a member of the Digital Diagnostics for Africa Network, a consortium of researchers involved in developing and testing next generation diagnostic tools to mitigate the burden of infectious diseases in Africa.
