Background

About Divya Joseph

As a graduate research assistant at the University of Connecticut, I am passionate about finding innovative solutions for infectious diseases that threaten human and animal health. My PhD research focuses on developing alternative drug candidates to combat antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens, using animal models and cell culture techniques. With a background in veterinary medicine and microbiology, I have extensive knowledge and experience in diagnosing and treating various animal diseases, as well as working with human pathogens in a biosafety level II laboratory. I am proficient in molecular diagnostics, proteomic analyses, and microbiome studies, and have published multiple papers in peer-reviewed journals. My goal is to contribute to the research and development of therapeutics that are safe and effective for both humans and animals.
