Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Klao Runcharoon's research focuses on the epidemiology and pathogenicity of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC). Her work investigates serogroups and pathotypes of APEC associated with colibacillosis in poultry, particularly in Georgia. Runcharoon has published studies utilizing molecular serology, virulence gene analysis, and genomic characterization to understand these pathogens. Her research includes longitudinal analyses of APEC strains, assessing their genotypic and phenotypic overlap with other extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC). She also evaluates molecular genotyping panels for epidemiological studies of APEC and employs in vitro, in vivo, and histopathological methods to characterize the pathogenicity of novel APEC strains. Runcharoon has also contributed to developing an integrated hybrid microbiology outreach model for students and educators.
