Atmika Paudel

OverviewAI-generated summary

Atmika Paudel investigates antimicrobial resistance mechanisms and the efficacy of therapeutic agents against bacterial pathogens. Research includes the genomic characterization of bacterial isolates from clinical and food sources, identifying chromosomal insertions and antimicrobial resistance genes in species such as *Enterobacter cloacae* and *Escherichia coli*. Paudel's work also examines the regulation of virulence genes and oxidative stress resistance in *Staphylococcus aureus*, with studies exploring the role of specific proteins like YjbH. Furthermore, research has focused on the potential of serum apolipoprotein A-I to enhance the therapeutic effect of lysocin E against *Staphylococcus aureus* infections. Paudel has also analyzed transcriptome changes in *Staphylococcus aureus* within infected mouse livers and investigated trends in antimicrobial use and resistance in hospital settings, notably in Zambia.

With a career marked by 62 publications and over 1,400 citations, Paudel holds an h-index of 22. Key collaborators include Sagar Godar Chhetri, Kevin Boston, and Elena C. Rubino, all from the University of Arkansas at Monticello. Paudel's research network is evidenced by shared publications with these colleagues.
