Elisabetta Cacace is a lecturer at ETH Zurich in the Department of Health Sciences and Technology. Her research focuses on how environmental cues influence bacterial responses to antibiotics, the evolution of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and the integration of classic molecular microbiology with systems biology approaches. Cacace employs large-scale phenotyping, metagenomics, proteomics, and metabolomics to delve into the fundamental principles of bacterial cellular networks and their clinical implications. Her work has significant implications for improving infection treatments in the age of AMR, investigating the impact of non-antibiotic drugs on bacterial activity and exploring the diversity of bacterial pathogens in under-sampled niches. Cacace's research represents the foundation for her research group, which will commence in 2026 at EPFL, supported by an SNSF Ambizione grant. She encourages inquiries for MSc and PhD positions.
