Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Christine V. Summage-West's research focuses on the genomic sequencing of various bacterial and archaeal species, often isolated from diverse environments including animal facilities, wastewater, and consumer products. Her work includes the complete genome sequencing of species such as *Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis*, *Campylobacter coli*, *Terrisporobacter glycolicus*, *Parabacteroides distasonis*, *Clostridium septicum*, and *Shigella flexneri*. Additionally, she has contributed to the sequencing of *Ralstonia pickettii* from a milk carton and *Streptococcus pneumoniae* from an infant rhesus monkey with meningitis.

Her publications demonstrate a consistent effort to characterize the genetic makeup of microorganisms, providing foundational data for further toxicological and microbiological studies. Summage-West collaborates with researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including Sung Guk Kim, Steven L. Foley, Mariela Reyna, and Lillie M. Sims, with whom she shares multiple publications. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 4, with 14 total publications and 167 citations.
