Romain Guerillot is a molecular microbiologist and data scientist specialised in bacterial functional genomics. Following his PhD graduation in 2014 at the Pasteur Institute of Paris he joined the research teams of Prof. Ben Howden and Prof. Tim Stinear. Using large scale data analysis, Romain combines innovative computational and experimental approaches to understand and fight antibiotic resistant bacterial pathogens. He is currently working on multiple research projects focusing on understanding how Staphylococcus aureus, a bacteria colonising ~20% of humans, can cause deadly infections.
