CMP seminar - Modelling how antibiotics work: Rosalind Allen (Edinburgh)
Understanding how antibiotics inhibit bacterial growth is important if we are design better treatment strategies to avoid the evolution of antibiotic resistance. However, there are surprisingly few models that describe the impact of antibiotics on bacterial physiology and growth. We have investigated how the richness of the nutrient medium affects the efficacy of action of ribosome-targeting antibiotics. We find apparently conflicting results: some ribosome targeting antibiotics work better on rich media while others work better on poor media. These results can be explained by a simple mathematical model. I will also describe preliminary results on the dynamical action of these antibiotics.

UKRI Deadlines
Due to the implementation of a new UKRI funding system (TFS) there will be a fixed quarterly deadlines for some grants which would previously have been on open calls, this is to allow necessary system amendments and updates.
The first deadline after implementation will be 28th September 2023 and applies to those calls listed below:
EPSRC Post Doctoral Fellowship
