Genomic studies of medically important bacteria is main area of interest with special focus on genomic epidemiology, mechanism of antimicrobial resistance in clinically important pathogens and population structure of bacterial agents causing nosocomial infections. Impact of antimicrobials on microbiome or dysbiosis and it's clinical implication. Selection/emergence of resistance after therapy. Furthermore, I am also interested in method development such as Fluorescent in-situ hybridization and Optical DNA Mapping techniques for use as diagnostic tools.
