Molecular biologyThis theme encompasses research into the molecular mechanisms which underlie bacterial pathogenesis. This includes examining the molecular changes that make bacteria antibiotic-resistant, understanding bacterial cellular processes in order to identify new target proteins for antibiotics, understanding how the interactions between bacteria and their host affect the success of antibiotic treatment, and investigating how antibiotic resistance mechanisms can be identified in the laboratory.
