Applying pharmacometrics to develop novel treatment strategies for Staphylococcus aureus infections in children

我的研究将确定给予抗生素治疗金黄色葡萄球菌的最佳方式，金黄色葡萄球菌是儿童感染的最常见原因之一。这包括发现我们是否可以提供高效的治疗，通过口服抗生素而不是通过滴注，每天减少剂量，这样我们就可以在家里治疗儿童而不是在医院。我还将探索使用常见抗生素治疗耐药感染的新方法。

My research will determine the best way to give antibiotics to treat Staphylococcus aureus, one of the most common causes of infection in children. This includes finding out if we can provide highly effective treatment with antibiotics given by mouth instead of through a drip, and with fewer doses each day, so we can treat kids at home instead of in hospital. I will also explore new ways to use common antibiotics to treat antibiotic-resistant infections.
