Biography

Erin Green is an Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago, specializing in the study of nosocomial infections and their emerging public health threats. Green's research focuses on understanding how bacterial pathogens, especially Acinetobacter baumannii, sense and adapt to long-term desiccation stress and the regulatory mechanisms involved in this transition between environmental reservoirs and mammalian hosts. Furthermore, Green investigates the role of proteolysis, particularly involving AAA+ family proteases, in controlling protein turnover in response to changing environmental conditions. Green completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Vanderbilt University and holds a Ph.D. from Tufts University, where her studies emphasized insights into bacterial gene expression and its regulation under various stress conditions. Her academic journey reflects a strong commitment to uncovering novel mechanisms of bacterial resistance and adaptation, contributing significantly to the field of microbiology.
