Hey, I’m Carolina

I am Pharmacist from Brazil, with more than 10 years experience in antimicrobial resistance research among gram-negative bacilli. I received my PhD from the Federal University of São Paulo, with a research stay at the University of Cologne, in Germany.

Over the years, I was involved in different research projects, mainly focused on the epidemiology of carbapenemase producing pathogens, as well as the emergence of colistin resistance in those organisms.

In 2020, I joined the Enteric Bacterial Pathogens Unit at the Pasteur Institute Paris, and has since focused on the evolution of enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic E. coli populations, as well as on the characterization of AMR mechanisms among historical isolates belonging to these pathotypes. I have also worked on training programs aiming to improve local capacity for genomic surveillance of priority and foodborne pathogens in Europe and Africa.

In 2023, I became deputy director of the French National Reference Center for Escherichia coli, Shigella, and Salmonella (CNR-ESS) and since then I am in charge of the surveillance of Shiga-toxin producing E. coli and Shigella populations in France. I have also been involved in different projects related to the development and improvement of genomic tools for genomic pathogen surveillance.

I have published more than 30 articles in international peer-reviewed journals and have presented my work in a variety of conferences in the field of clinical microbiology and infectious diseases (the complete list can be found here). More details can also be found in my CV and on my work webpage. You can follow me on Twitter @CarolinaNodari.
