Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Saeed Khan's research focuses on understanding microbial behavior and genetic characteristics, particularly in relation to antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors. His work involves the comprehensive genomic analysis of various bacterial pathogens, including Uropathogenic E. coli and multidrug-resistant E. coli isolates from imported shrimp. Khan has investigated the genetic makeup of clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus from Pakistan and has explored the dynamic adaptive responses of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to antimicrobial-impregnated catheters.

His research also extends to quantitative proteome analysis, examining the global response of Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilms to subinhibitory concentrations of tigecycline. Khan has contributed to methods development for growing and measuring in vitro static biofilms. Furthermore, his work includes the detection of bacteria like Campylobacter jejuni from fresh produce using a combination of culture-based, PCR-based, and metagenomic approaches. He has also explored novel applications for nanomaterials, such as chitosan-stabilized copper oxide nanoparticles for ascorbic acid sensing.

Khan leads a research group and collaborates extensively with colleagues at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including Kidon Sung, Miseon Park, Ohgew Kweon, and Angel Paredes. He is recognized as a highly cited researcher, with an h-index of 21 and over 1,300 citations across his 78 publications.
