About

Zheng Zhou Lee is an emerging researcher at the intersection of microbiology, public health technology, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance. Their work centers on developing innovative, scalable solutions to one of global medicine's most pressing challenges: tracking and combating antibiotic-resistant pathogens across human, animal, and environmental health systems — a framework known as One Health. Lee's most significant contribution is the development of the Robotic Antimicrobial Susceptibility Platform (RASP), a high-throughput automated system designed to dramatically expand the scale of AMR surveillance beyond the limitations of traditional manual methods. This work, which has garnered over 24 citations since its 2021 publication, represents a meaningful technological leap in how resistance data can be collected and analyzed. Building on this foundation, Lee's subsequent research demonstrated RASP's real-world utility by detecting the transnational movement of fluoroquinolone-resistant *Escherichia coli* strains into poultry populations — a finding with direct food safety and public health implications. With a growing citation record and a clear focus on translating engineering solutions into infectious disease epidemiology, Lee represents a forward-thinking voice in the global fight against antimicrobial resistance.
