Manage episode 280412843 series 2691615
On this episode, co-hosts Matthew Wellington and Lance B. Price, interview Dr. Evgeni Sokurenko, MD, PhD., a Professor of Microbiology at the University of Washington and the Founder and Chairman of the Board at ID Genomics, Inc. Dr. Sokurenko’s work focuses on mechanisms of molecular adaptive evolution of genes in bacterial pathogens such as E. coli. In this episode, you will learn about the binding mechanisms that allow E. coli to attach to human tissues to cause urinary tract infections, mutations that allow E. coli to become more pathogenic, and overall implications that such mutations have on antibiotic resistance and the treatability of bacterial infections.
