Why Is Susan S. Huang Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Susan S Huang is affiliated with the University of California Irvine School of Medicine. She specializes in infection prevention. Susan Huang is Professor of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases and Medical Director of Epidemiology and Infection Prevention at the University of California, Irvine. She led clinical trials to assess effective methods of decolonization, including the widely cited REDUCE MRSA trial, published in The New England Journal of Medicine in 2013. Her work to advance the academic and practical knowledge of infection prevention has informed the Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee, which advises on infection prevention and surveillance practices used throughout the U.S. health care system.
