Stevan Cucic, MSc 

​Stevan Cucic is a PhD student in the Khursigara lab. He completed his undergraduate degree in microbiology and MSc in food science at the University of Guelph. During his MSc he was supervised by Dr. Mansel Griffiths and he worked on phage biocontrol and phage-mediated detection of bacteria. He is co-supervised by Dr. Hany Anany at the Guelph Research and Development Centre of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. Stevan’s current research involves studying interactions between Listeria monocytogenes and its bacteriophages in planktonic and biofilm growth modes using a combination of proteomics and imaging techniques. He is developing a phage-based biosanitizer that may be used to degrade Listeria containing biofilms in food processing environments.
