About

Summary

Microbiology Professor @ CMFI Cluster of Excellence, Uni Tuebingen, Germany

ERC Researcher

EMBL Alumni

We use systems biology approaches to study antimicrobial activity against bacteria, specially Gram-negative pathogens. We want to uncover how bacterial molecular networks rewire in response to antimicrobials, and how that changes across environments and genetic contexts. Our ultimate goal it to enable better treatment through advanced mechanistic knowledge. Find out more https://www.brochadolab.com/

Positions

Professor Apr 2023 -

Interfaculty Institute of Microbiology and Infection Medicine Tübingen (IMIT), Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen

Drug-microbe interactions

Skills

Keywords: Bacterial genetics, Computational Biology, High throughput screening, microbiology

Professional interests

We study how bacteria cope (or not!) with drugs in their environment. Our goal is to expose druggable features to aid treatment design, while gaining novel biological insight into how bacteria operate. We combine basic microbiology with high-throughput screening and systems biology approaches.
