Vedantam Laboratory

 MISSION STATEMENT

Our research concentrates on healthcare-associated infections caused by Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile). A long-term goal of these efforts is to develop safe and cost-effective non-antibiotic interventions to prevent and treat this intestinal infection. Multiple genomic and proteomic approaches are used to study C. difficile and the laboratory routinely gleans new clinical information from their multiple surveillance projects.
