My work focuses on the molecular epidemiology and genomics of Campylobacter jejuni. Since joining the Public Health Agency of Canada’s as a Research Scientist in 2006, I have developed a research programme focusing on bacterial comparative genomics, genome dynamics and the application of genomics approaches towards the study of the molecular surveillance and epidemiology of priority food- and water-borne bacterial pathogens. I'm lead the Campylobacter Genomics Laboratory at the National Microbiology Laboratory and I'm head of the Genomic Epidemiology Research Unit. I am currently a co-principal investigator of a Genome Alberta-funded project on large-scale sequencing on Campylobacter in the Canadian poultry chain, a co-investigator on a Genome Canada-funded project on AMR emergence, transmission and ecology and a work package leader in the Government of Canada’s Genomics Research Development Initiative interdepartmental project on AMR.
