#48 – Aligning Goals: Antibiotics in End of Life Care

From generating 150 liters-worth of E. coli to the first X-ray crystallography of an ESBL, Drs. Robert Bonomo, Ryan Shields (@ryankshields), and Erin McCreary (@ErinMcCreary) take a deep dive into beta-lactamases like AmpCs, KPCs, and more.

#47 – A Nefarious Orchestra: Gram-Negative Resistance Mechanisms Part 2

Mechanisms of antibiotic resistance help us understand and recognize antibiotic susceptibility patterns that don't make sense. Robert Bonomo and Ryan Shields (@ryankshields) join Erin McCreary (@ErinMcCreary) to discuss efflux and porin mechanisms of resistance in Gram negative bacteria and their impact on antibacterial treatment.
