What is it about?
In this work I tried to find out how I could improve the analysis of pieces of DNA that can cause resistance in bacteria. To do so I updated an existing technique to improve handling times and accuracy and sensitivity.

Why is it important?
With this tool we can study the spread and amount of drug resistance in bacterial samples.
Perspectives
This work was a great chance for me to roll into science and learn a lot about detection methodology used in clinical labs.
