Rachel Defends Her MSc
Congratulations to Rachel Courtice on her defense! Rachel's graduate research focused on the emergence of antimicrobial resistance in E. coli and Staphylococcus pseudintermedius causing canine urinary tract infections over a 4 year period. For the most part Rachel's results are a good news story, resistance is still remarkably rare in our region; but she did identify a number of ESBL producing E. coli and even strain belonging to ST131 which possessed the aac6-Ib-cr quinolone
Successful MSc Defense: Dongyun Jung - Student to Alumni...
Congratulations to Dongyun Jung for defending his MSc! Dongyun joined theRubinlab back in January, 2017 and has been exceptionally productive over the last two years. Dongyun’s thesis focused on describing the presence of antimicrobial resistant bacteria in imported plant-based foods (vegetables and spices). In addition to his research, Dongyun has also honed his talents as an "agar artist", making some incredible creations and entering national and international competitions
Roshan Defends his PhD
Congratulations to Roshan Priyantha for successfully defending his PhD! Roshan was a founding member of theRubinlab, joining in September 2013. Roshan’s thesis focused on antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, an important pathogen of dogs. Throughout his research Roshan addressed questions relating to the emergence of resistance in the Saskatoon area, comparing isolates from different types of infections and identifying the molecular basis for tetracycl
Congratulations Kazal - theRubinlab's First Alum!
Congratulations to Kazal for successfully defending his MSc thesis entitled "Antimicrobial resistance and molecular characterization of Escherichia coli isolated from Ontario chickens"! Kazal joined the group in January 2015, and is now officially the first Rubin lab alumnus - it's a very big day for us all. Thanks to Drs. Janet Hill and Jenny Fricke for participation in Kazal's graduate advisory committee and Dr. Aaron White for serving as external examiner. Kazal is now wor
