Episode 14 - Syma Khalid: New ways to fight bacteria, the bacterial envelope, and kindness & openness in academia

Update: 2024-06-24

Description

In the fourteenth episode, Syma Khalid and I talk about the challenges we're faced with when trying to understand the environment of the bacterial cell envelope, and the outer membrane in particular. We discuss how the lessons taken from the computational study of these structures can inform the design of future antibacterial agents. Then, we move on to consider strategies for making the scientific environment of one's research group a place to thrive, develop, and live a happy and fulfilling life.
