Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Thidathip Wongsurawat's research focuses on the genomic characterization of various organisms and microbial pathogens. Her work includes assembling the genome of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) to identify growth-associated genes and analyzing the transcriptomic landscape of this species using different sequencing technologies. She has also investigated circular DNA in the human germline and its association with recombination.

Wongsurawat has studied bacterial genomics, including the genomic characterization of *Streptococcus suis* serotype 24 from human patients and an emerging zoonotic strain responsible for an outbreak in Thailand, which was associated with acquired multi-drug resistance. Her research also extends to multidrug-resistant *Neisseria gonorrhoeae* infections, with a report on reduced susceptibility to ceftriaxone in Thailand.

Her collaborative network includes Piroon Jenjaroenpun, Intawat Nookaew, Visanu Wanchai, and Alongkorn Kurilung, all from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom she has co-authored numerous publications. Wongsurawat maintains an active lab website and leads a research group. She is recognized as a highly cited researcher, with an h-index of 29, over 181 publications, and more than 3,000 citations.
