Research Interests
The Walker group primarily studies metabolic pathways involved in microbial survival and pathogenesis.
The underlying motivation for many of the projects is to develop the scientific and technological foundations for the discovery and evaluation of new targets, strategies, and compounds to treat resistant bacterial infections.
Approaches
Chemical Biology: the use of organic and biophysical chemistry, enzymology, molecular genetics, and cell biology to study fundamental metabolic pathways and to develop strategies to manipulate or inhibit them within the cellular context.
