My areas of expertise and research interests include antibiotic resistance, application of nanotechnology in antimicrobial therapy, diagnosis of infectious diseases, and functional evaluation of microbiome. In the antibiotic resistance area, we investigate antibiotic resistance mechanisms and identify resistant strains of bacterium through genomic analysis and molecular methods. In the nano-antimicrobial therapeutic area, we evaluate the antimicrobial effectiveness of nanomaterials and study the impacts of nanomaterials on antibiotics’ function and skin microbiome. In addition, we are interested in detecting the structure and function of human skin microbiome through metagenomics.
