Education

Achtman was educated at McGill University and graduated in 1963 (B. Sc. Hon. Bacteriology & Immunology). He then attended the University of Manitoba where he was awarded a Master of Science degree in 1965 for research on hemagglutination in adenovirus.[6] He went on to complete a PhD on bacterial fertility factor at the University of California, Berkeley in 1969.[7][8]

Research

Achtman's research interests are in the population genetics of pathogenic bacteria such as Vibrio cholerae,[9] Salmonella,[10][11] Yersinia pestis,[12][13] Neisseria meningitidis,[14] Escherichia coli,[8] Helicobacter pylori,[15] and Bordetella.[16] Achtman was one of the inventors of multilocus sequence typing.[17] His research has been funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and Medical Research Council (MRC).[18]

Awards and honours

Achtman was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 2015. His nomination reads:[1]
