Dr. Anette Vincent
Dr. Annette Vincent (Carnegie Mellon University Qatar), Qatar Dr. Vincent obtained her BSc (Honors) and PhD degrees in Biochemistry from the National University of Singapore, Singapore and is currently an Assistant Teaching Professor and Program Director of the Biological Sciences program at Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar. Being a true blue Singaporean, she enjoys eating and cooking. If there was time for sports, football and netball are the sports of choice. Her scientific research focuses on the isolation and characterization of bacteriophages as an alternative to biocides/ antibiotics to combat pathogenic bacteria in the environment. Her group isolates undiscovered bacteriophages from the environment (sand, soil, wastewater) and purify these viruses against host bacterial species related to disease causing or bioremediation associated species. Through the use of next-generation sequencing techniques and computational biology tools, her group aims to elucidate the microbiome and bacteriophages from the environment with hopes to combat pathogenic bacteria from the environment
