About

Louis-Patrick Haraoui’s research focuses on microbiology at the intersection of clinical infectious diseases and microbiome studies, combining methodologies from molecular biology, the social sciences and philosophy. Past projects have investigated antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the context of armed conflicts, as well as archival work tracing the evolution over many decades of bacterial antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements within the Acinetobacter genus. Current work includes using machine learning models to detect novel bacterial ARGs across ecosystems; updating One Health approaches in light of microbiome studies; public understandings of microbes across geographic locations; and revising models of evolutionary biology accounting for data arising from AMR and microbiome studies.
