Our work focuses on regulation of genes involved in bacterial conjugation. The work focuses on plasmids and conjugative transposons in Enterococcus faecalis and relates to the general problem of bacterial antibiotic resistance and its dissemination. We are also involved in studies of the regulation of glucosyltransferase expression in Streptococcus gordonii.

我们的工作重点是参与细菌接合的基因的调控。这项工作重点关注粪肠球菌中的质粒和接合转座子，并涉及细菌抗生素耐药性及其传播的普遍问题。 我们还参与了戈登链球菌中葡萄糖基转移酶表达调控的研究。
