My research focuses on the molecular mechanisms bacteria use to respond to their surrounding
environment, with an emphasis on two-component signal transduction systems and alternative
sigma factors. This includes the transcriptional activation of virulence factors during
infection of a human host and the utilization of hydrocarbons as a nutrient source
during bioremediation efforts of contaminated environments.
