What we study

The lab studies how mycobacteria that live in soil and water evolved to infect people, with a focus on their metabolism. It looks for small molecules that kill pathogens including the tuberculosis bacterium. The lab is at UF Scripps in Jupiter, Florida, not on the Gainesville campus.
