Brendan Robertson

Brendan Robertson is a researcher focused on microbial epidemiology and aquaculture systems. His work integrates environmental DNA analysis and microbiological studies to address challenges in fish health and ecosystem management. He has published on antimicrobial resistance dynamics in aquaculture environments and planktonic threat detection in salmon farming systems.

Key research interests include understanding pathogen persistence mechanisms, optimizing eDNA-based monitoring, and mitigating antimicrobial resistance spread. His recent studies bridge molecular biology with applied aquaculture solutions.

Notably, he collaborated with Professors Martin Llewellyn and James Cotton as academic supervisors. Current work emphasizes longitudinal tracking of aquatic pathogens using cutting-edge genomic tools.
