I have joined Gerry's lab in July 2000 as a post doc. In 2002 I became Research associate. The passion for science and people in the lab made me stay all this years. I have acquired the immense amount of knowledge and I truly think it is the best place for science.
Currently involved in natural product synthesis and modifications for structure activity relationship studies. We are also working on expanding chemical diversity by making new compounds with improved biological properties on their own or in combinations with other antibiotics. Other areas are identification and structural elucidation of natural products derived from our microbial extracts collection by high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS/MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. My passion is synthesis of activity based probes for studying antibiotic activity and resistance.
