Dragana Ajdic

Molecular Bacteriology and Bacterial Genetics with a special emphasis on regulatory mechanisms controlling gene expression, mechanisms of pathogenesis, biofilm formation and microbiome of chronic wound biofilms.

Dr. Ajdic’s research is focused on understanding chronic wound and oral biofilms.

Dr. Ajdic’s team studies bacterial communities infecting DFUs and uses high-throughput sequencing to identify and analyze chronic wound microbiota.

Molecular Microbiology and Bacterial Genetics with a special emphasis on regulatory mechanisms controlling gene expression, mechanisms of pathogenesis and biofilm formation by using systems biology approaches (bioinformatics, genomics, metagenomics and transcriptomics).
