One-health microbial genomics approach for epidemiological tracking of bacterial pathogens along the farm-to-form continuum
Prof. Mohamed Elhadidy, Zewail City of Science, Technology and Innovation



In episode 7 we have a guest presentation from Prof. Mohamed Elhadidy, who is a professor of Biomedical Sciences at Zewail City of science and technology, Egypt.

Dr. Elhadidy research program aims to develop a better understanding of the pathogenesis, ecology, evolution, and transmission of bacterial foodborne and zoonotic diseases through the implementation of different population genetics and comparative genomic studies of these bacterial pathogens. His most recent research activities implemented high throughput sequencing technologies and genomic tools to gain crucial insights into genetic determinants that play a role in virulence potential, antimicrobial resistance and transmission of different zoonotic bacterial pathogens to human.

This webinar is organized by the PHA4GE Secretariat in partnership with Zewail City of Science, Technology and Innovation.
