Objective
This research project is focused on characterizing the function of the Vibrio cholerae resistance-nodulation-division (RND) family efflux systems in virulence gene expression and pathogenesis. Elucidation of the role of the RND efflux systems in V. cholerae pathogenesis may lead to the development of new treatments for the disease cholera.
