Martin Welch

Martin Welch is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences and the Department of Biochemistry. His research focuses on Microbiology, specifically Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with an emphasis on Physiology and metabolism, Virulence, and AMR. His work explores how virulence, biofilm formation, and antibiotic resistance are regulated through metabolic and nutritional cues, environmental stress, and inter-cellular signaling systems such as quorum sensing. He employs techniques including protein chemistry, molecular genetics, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and fluxomics. His research also involves biophysics and infection models.
