While undertaking her Master’s Degree, she worked at Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology as a Clinical Research Coordinator in the Molecular Bacteriology Unit, where she was responsible for several antimicrobial resistance (AMR) projects in collaboration with the Fleming Fund UK and CDC U.S.A. 

Through her work, she observed the high rate of resistant human pathogens, and having a strong background in genetics, she gained an interest in how the highly available whole-genome sequencing data nowadays can help us understand more about intra- and interspecies interaction in pathogenic bacterial population which potentially promote resistance, specifically, as well as provide an evolutionary drive in general. 

These are the questions she is now trying to answer as a DPhil student at the University of Oxford by utilizing genomes in public databases and multiple bioinformatics pipelines. Her project focuses on bacterial pathogens causing respiratory and invasive diseases, especially meningitis and sepsis, such as Haemophilus influenza.
