Samuel Lipworth
Academic Clinical Fellow/Registrar in Infectious Diseases & Medical Microbiology
I am a medical microbiology/infectious diseases registrar and NIHR Academic Clinical Fellow. I completed my DPhil in the group in 2022 looking at analysis of large sequencing/electronic healthcare record datasets to investigate the molecular epidemiology of Gram-negative bloodstream infections. More recently I have worked on prediction of antibiotic resistance from sequencing data and am currently co-leading the UKHSA funded NEKSUS study, which seeks to better understand regional differences in the molecular epidemiology of Gram-negative bloodstream infections in England to inform future surveillance efforts. I am also leading a project in collaboration with UKHSA to understand the epidemiology and changing risk factors associated with AMR in Gram-negative bloodstream infections over time using large linked national datasets.
