Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Rebekah N. Thompson's research focuses on antimicrobial resistance, particularly in Gram-negative bacteria. Her work investigates the mechanisms by which bacteria develop resistance to critical antibiotics, such as cefiderocol. A recent publication details how insertion sequence IS Aba36 in the siderophore receptor pirA is associated with treatment-emergent cefiderocol resistance in carbapenem-resistant *Acinetobacter baumannii*. Thompson also explores alternative therapeutic strategies, as indicated by a publication on the use of aztreonam–avibactam with eravacycline for a tibial septic non-union caused by NDM-producing *Enterobacter cloacae*. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 2, with 2 total publications and 26 total citations. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Ryan K. Dare and Jacob M. Keck, with whom she shares two publications.
