Scientific Focus
Research Interests
I study host-microbe interactions in the genitourinary tract. Specifically, I am interested in how these components interact in the context of interventions such as antibiotics and probiotics, as well as diverse states of genitourinary health and disease, including biofilms, chronic parasite infections, and sepsis.
