Grinter Laboratory: Molecular Physiology of Microbial Pathogens

Research Overview

The Grinter Laboratory utilises a multidisciplinary combination of structural biology, molecular cell biology, chemical biology, and multi-omics to understand the physiology of microbes on a molecular level. We apply this understanding to develop strategies to understand and combat bacterial disease, and to develop new tools for industrial biotechnology.
