Cellular mechanisms of drug resistance evolution

Subject Area
Evolutionary Cell and Developmental Biology (Zoology)
Term
since 2018
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 325931972
The overarching goal of this project is to predict key aspects of resistance evolution from readily accessible measurements of antibiotic responses. We will (1) synthetically manipulate antibiotic dose-response characteristics, (2) build and parameterize mathematical models to predict the rate and repeatability of resistance evolution, and (3) test theoretical predictions in quantitative evolution experiments.
