I am a geneticist, passionate about bacteria and their evolutionary mechanisms. I lead a team working on horizontal gene transfer, recombination, the SOS response and genome architecture. I did my PhD in Genetics, on […]
In the lab, we are focusing on bacterial mechanisms of survival in hostile environments containing sub-lethal antibiotic concentrations. The emergence of antibiotic resistance is increasingly associated with low antibiotic concentrations in the aquatic environment, […]
My work focuses on the interplay between the organisation of genomes arising by the chromosomal interactions of cellular processes and the recombination processes generating adaptive genetic variation. Genetic elements tend to be organized in […]
