1. Resume

Short summary of skills, experience and career objective

I am a recent PhD graduate from the University of Minnesota College of Pharmacy in the United States. Having spent the last four and a half years working on my dissertation work studying fosfomycin heteroresistance in uropathogens, I'm looking to continue my scientific career in the clinical or translational microbiology space. During my graduate studies I used animal models, bioinformatics, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing among other techniques to complete my research objective of determining the translational significance of fosfomycin resistant colonies growing within the zone of inhibition during disk diffusion testing.
