Davenport University issued the following announcement on July 24.
Dr. Laura Harris, an assistant professor at Davenport University, and her team are doing their part in contributing to the global race to find a cure for #COVID19. Working alongside her are Amber Park, a current Davenport student, and Jared Geller, a recent Davenport graduate.
Over the past several years, Harris has been studying what changes inside a bacterial cell to make it resistant to antibiotics. She studies these changes using computational approaches she developed while working toward a Ph.D. in biomedical informatics at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey. Harris’ dissertation applied her computational approach for solving antibiotic resistance to Staphylococcus (staph) infections, a serious and sometimes deadly threat in health care.
