Samuel Lipworth
Clinical Lecturer in Infectious Diseases
I am a clinical lecturer in Infectious Diseases broadly interested in the use of sequencing and electronic healthcare record data to better understand the biology of Gram-negative infections and design novel diagnostics and therapeutics to mitigate their impact. I am particularly interested in the genomics of antimicrobial resistance, plasmid biology and evolution, novel sequencing and bioinformatics methodologies and the role of the gut microbiome in infection. I work within the Modernising Medical Microbiology Unit and the NIHR Health Protection Research Unit in AMR and Healthcare associated infections.
