I'm Martin K. Amstalden, a new PhD student in the lab.
About me
I come from Brazil. I did my Bachelors in Pharmacy-Biochemistry and my Masters in Biosciences and Biotechnology at the University of São Paulo, where I worked with the antimicrobial activity of lectins and their association with antibiotics.
My project
My PhD project focuses on investigating the influence of drugs, food chemicals and human metabolites on virulence and antibiotic resistance regulatory networks of Salmonella Typhimurium, using novel high-throughput screening methods.
