Evaluation of the potential for dispersal of antibiotic resistance determinants along the food chain, from animals to man. Role of phospholipid metabolism in antimicrobial susceptibility: identification of new determinants of resistance and possible therapeutic targets. doi.org/10.3390/antibiotics9090531 doi.org/10.3390/antibiotics9110750 doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2018.02515 dx.doi.org/10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2017.22.31.30586 doi.org/10.1093/jac/dku320 doi.org/10.1128/AAC.03895-14

• Brief description of your project / the project you would like to join:

  Projects interested to study of the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance from a “one health” perspective, especially where the resistance determinants involved and their potential for dispersal have to be identified and molecularly characterized. Projects related to the evolution of resistance mechanisms in antibiotic-free environments and in response to alternative antimicrobial treatments in livestock and in human clinics.
