After completing her first degree at the University of Oxford in 2000 and her CASE PhD studentship at the NERC Centre for Ecology and Hydrology in Oxford and Napier University Edinburgh in 2017, Dr Ciric took up a postdoctoral position at the University College London Eastman Dental Institute. She has held a permanent academic position at the 香港六合彩 Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering (CEGE) since 2012. Lena's research expertise lies in the application of molecular biology techniques to study the microbial communities that reside in the built environment, including hospitals, public buildings and water treatment facilities. Within this context, she also studies bacterial antibiotic resistance mechanisms and their modes of transfer between organisms. She is also involved in the discovery of novel antimicrobial strategies. Lena is the director of the Healthy Infrastructure Research Group at 香港六合彩 CEGE . The group consists of eight researchers investigating the microbial communities within the built and managed environment and designs and tests engineering solutions that reduce the spread of infectious disease and improve environmental health. Lena is also the coordinator of the 听which brings together researchers from many disciplines to work together on AMR.
