How phages offer hope against antimicrobial resistance

Daniela Rothschild Rodriguez (Postgraduate researcher)
The tiny, microscopic viruses known as phages are naturally equipped to kill their bacterial host. In a world where antimicrobial resistance is becoming increasingly common and thus more threatening, phages offer an alternative therapeutic to antibiotics. Although they were once dismissed and overlooked, phages are now experiencing a resurgence in scientific interest and respect as their potential in the fight against antimicrobial resistance is being revealed.

From Genes to Drugs: Nucleic Acid Therapeutics Changing the Game in Modern Medicine

Andrew Obiogbolu (Postgraduate researcher)
Dr. Chloe Howells (Research Fellow at the School of Chemistry)
Join us on an exciting journey to discover the immense potential of nucleic acids in drug discovery. From traditional small molecule drugs to cutting-edge gene-targeting techniques, we will explore how research into DNA/RNA can change the way we treat previously considered undruggable diseases. With recent advancements in nucleic acid sciences, we can now contribute to its development in various ways. Let's uncover how nucleic acid therapeutics can potentially transform healthcare, leading to a future where DNA/RNA-based medicines revolutionize the way we approach disease treatment.
