Personal profile
Research Interests
Bacteria strongly compete for nutrients and space in the intestinal microbiota, and this can determine whether an incoming strain can successfully colonise the gut. I am broadly interested in the molecular mechanisms behind bacterial competition, with a focus of how these systems are used by pathogens to invade and establish a niche within the resident microbiota.
