Author Information
Jans Michiels is affiliated with the Centre of Microbial and Plant Genetics at KU Leuven - University of Leuven in Leuven, Belgium, as well as the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Microbiology. His research focuses on microbial genetics and microbiology, with a particular interest in bacterial persistence, antibiotic resistance, and microbial production of bio-compounds.Research Contributions
Jans Michiels has made significant contributions to the understanding of bacterial persistence and antibiotic resistance. His work spans various aspects of microbial genetics, including genome-wide association studies, transcription-coupled DNA repair, and the evolutionary dynamics of antibiotic persistence. His recent publications highlight innovative methods for studying bacterial persistence, the role of respiratory complex I mutations in antibiotic persistence, and the functional analysis of type I toxins in Escherichia coli. Additionally, his research on protein aggregation as a bacterial strategy to survive antibiotic treatment underscores the multifaceted nature of bacterial defense mechanisms.Aliases
Jans Michiels has published under several aliases, including J Michiels, J. Michiels, Jan Michiels, and Jans Michiels.Publication and Citation Metrics
