Laboratory of Translational Microbiology

Research                                  

We fight against multi-drug resistant bacteria by developing molecular tools that help to understand the course of resistance evolution against novel antimicrobial therapies. Utilizing the knowledge we gain, we develop novel therapeutic strategies with a special emphasis on infections typical in chronic inflammatory diseases.

To this aim, we combine a collection of systems and synthetic biology approaches, ranging from bioinformatics and a wide variety of genomics techniques to genome engineering in order to provide an example of how modern biological approaches can advance research towards a new era of precision medicine.

The establishment of the lab was supported by a grant from the Hungarian Centre of Excellence for Molecular Medicine (HCEMM). HCEMM focuses on molecular medicine-oriented research activities to catalyze reforms in research culture and facilitate regional development.
