Trevor Lithgow

Trevor Lithgow is Director of the Centre to Impact AMR at Monash University. Trevor was awarded his PhD in the Department of Biochemistry at La Trobe University working with Professors Nicholas Hoogenraad and Peter Høj, and did his postdoctoral work as a HFSP Fellow at the University of Basel with Professor Gottfried Schatz. Trevor is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science, and his laboratory at Monash University is part of the NHMRC Program in Cellular Microbiology. Work in the Lithgow laboratory is aimed at defining the mechanisms by which bacterial outer membranes control drug-resistance phenotypes, access of the bacterial cell to bacteriophages and other agents, and the evolutionary relationships by which new functions have come about in bacteria and in the bacteriophage that prey on them.
