NIH grant awarded to Harvard Medical School to study bacterial dormancy and antibiotic persistence, aiming to identify new drug targets.
Description
This is a NIH research grant for studying bacterial physiology related to antibiotic resistance. The project aims to uncover mechanisms of bacterial survival under non-growing conditions and identify vulnerabilities for antibiotic targeting. The award is multi-year, with a focus on fundamental biophysical mechanisms and potential drug targets.
