Check out my new review with @CaressaTsai on how targeting the outer membrane is turning an old drug discovery foe into an opportunity to uncover the next generation of antibiotics.

Excited to share our discovery from @eric_brown_bbs lab of a novel antivirulence agent that reverses b-lactam resistance in MRSA. Was fun collaborating with @deheinrichs and @McGavLab @WesternU and Mike Organ @OttawaU and Richard Epand @McMasterU on this! https://t.co/ERCv4SneMk
Dr. Omar El-Halfawy from the @eric_brown_bbs lab is the 2019 recipient of the Gerard Wright PDF award in Infectious Diseases for his work on reversing resistance in MRSA. Well done! @McMasterIIDR
With excitement we announce the recipient of the 2019 Gerard Wright Postdoctoral Award in Infection Research, Dr. Omar El-Halfawy !

With @gerryiidr and my former p-doc #RanjanaPathania overlooking the Ganges river in the foothills of the Himalayas. Great to be at Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (@iitroorkee) for the International symposium on Antibiotic Resistance.
Check out @CaressaTsai's 'Behind the Paper' post for the Nature Microbiology Community entitled "Harnessing the innate immune system for antibiotic discovery" about our recent @NatureComms paper.

Happy to see our work published in @NatureComms today! We found a new antibiotic scaffold that kills intracellular #Salmonella Typhimurium and discover OM disruption in macrophages.
Great working with @CaressaTsai on this

A small, black box developed in a Mac lab — that cost about $200 -- can analyze 6,000+ samples of bacteria to see how they respond to antibiotics. It’s a game-changer. | @MacHealthSci#ResearchIntensive#BrighterWorld https://t.co/mqBILq5HNU
