Thrilled to share the first paper of my PhD @DoerrLab is live at PLOS Pathogens! journals.plos.org/plospathog…

Prevalence and mechanisms of high-level carbapenem antibiotic tolerance in clinical isolates of...

Author summary Bacteria can survive exposure to antibiotics by constantly repairing cellular damage induced by the drug. This “antibiotic tolerance” enables diverse bacteria to survive long enough to...
