About

Dr Stefano Giulieri is a clinician researcher with a special interest in staphylococcal genomics and orthopaedic infections. He is passionate about using evolutionary biology, statistical genomics and machine learning approaches to answer clinical questions in infectious diseases. He is particularly interested in how bacteria like the hospital superbug Staphylococcus aureus, evolve within patients during severe infections to evade both antibiotics and immune responses.

He is an Infectious Diseases Physician at the Royal Melbourne Hospital where he has a clinic specialised in orthopaedics infections. Before moving to Melbourne, he was the Head of the Infectious Diseases Consultation in the Orthopaedics Department at the Lausanne University Hospital, Switzerland.
