Conor Meehan

Conor Meehan is Associate Professor in Microbial Bioinformatics specializing in molecular epidemiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and microbiome evolution. His research applies genomic approaches to study pathogen transmission, drug resistance mechanisms, and clinical decision-making tools. With over 10 years' experience, he develops bioinformatic methods for pathogen surveillance and taxonomic classification.

He serves as editor for Microbial Genomics and FEMS Microbiology Letters. Current projects investigate tuberculosis transmission networks and host-microbiome interactions in pulmonary diseases.
