Description

In this second episode on antibiotics, the Infectious Minds duo explores an unintended, and occasionally terrifying consequence of these life-saving drugs, antibiotic resistance. What exactly is antibiotic resistance? How did it arise? And what kind of microbial “monsters” are we now up against? This episode unpacks the fundamental science behind one of medicine’s most urgent and literally evolving threats.
