Research Focus

Our lab is interested in transcription factors and how they enable bacterial pathogens to adapt to changes in their environment.

To address this question, we use and develop high-throughput sequencing-based approaches to characterize transcriptional regulatory networks. Specifically, we focus on two aspects of transcription factor biology to identify interactions that are key for infections:

1. The interactions of transcription factors with DNA to regulate gene expression

2. The molecular signals sensed by transcription factors to modulate their DNA-binding activity
