معرفی
Dr. Dinesh Subedi is a Research Fellow at Monash University's School of Biological Sciences and an Adjunct Lecturer at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). His research focuses on antimicrobial resistance, phage therapy, and bacterial pathogenesis, with contributions to combating multidrug-resistant pathogens and improving infection control strategies. He holds a PhD in Microbiology from UNSW (2019) and an M.Sc. in Medical Microbiology from Tribhuvan University (2008).

- PhD in Microbiology: Mechanism of Antimicrobial Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (UNSW, 2015–2019)
- M.Sc. in Medical Microbiology: Bacteriological Profile of Neonatal Septicaemia (Tribhuvan University, 2008)
Research Interests:
- Antimicrobial resistance mechanisms in Pseudomonas and Enterobacter species
- Development of phage-based therapies for nosocomial infections
- Environmental and clinical transmission of pathogens via aerosols
- Role of Acanthamoeba in pathogen survival and ocular infections
Recent Projects:
