Search and rescue: tackling antibiotic resistance with chemistry
With the rise of multi-drug resistant bacterial pathogens, the possibility of a post-antibiotic world is quickly becoming reality.

Exploring the metabolism and toxicity of amino sugars and 2-deoxyglucose in Streptomyces
Streptomyces are prolific producers of enzymes and secondary metabolites, including more than 50% of all clinical antibiotics. This makes them highly attractive for medical, biotechnological, and industrial purposes.

The rhizomicrobiome of Sorghum ; impact on plant growth and stress tolerance
The overall objectives of my thesis are to investigate the dynamics of the sorghum root microbiome and to explore the beneficial effects of the root microbiome on sorghum growth and stress tolerance.

Metabolomics approaches for unravelling host-gut microbiota changes in different stages of cognitive impairment
The investigation into the bidirectional communication between the gut and its host is a rapidly growing area of research, attracting considerable attention for its potential to provide crucial insights into health and disease.

Emerging approaches to study cell-cell interactions
The aim of this thesis is to study cell-cell interactions and the development of an assay to explore and quantify the exchange of membrane compounds.

The developing infant gut microbiota: mathematical predictions of the effects of oligosaccharides
A complex community of microbes develops in the infant gut shortly after birth. We call this community the infant gut microbiota. The microbiota influences the health of the infant, which makes the composition and function of the infant gut microbiota an important topic to study.

Quantitative pharmacology of antimicrobials
Antimicrobial drugs constitute a fundamental part of modern medicine. The global rise in antimicrobial resistance poses a major threat to global health.

Kinderkanker opsporen met bacteriën
Ariane Briegel wil bacteriën inzetten om vroegtijdig kanker te detecteren. Samen met postdoc Alise Muok ontwikkelt ze een methode om de urine van patiënten snel en goedkoop te kunnen testen op de aanwezigheid van verdachte moleculen. Ze ontvangen hiervoor een beurs van ongeveer 150.000 euro van KWF…

Onderzoekers gaan de strijd aan met antibioticaresistente bacteriën
Wanneer een bacterie resistenter wordt voor het ene antibioticum, wordt het soms gevoeliger voor een ander. Om deze wisselwerking beter te begrijpen, brachten onderzoekers van het Instituut Biologie Leiden (IBL) en het Leiden Academic Centre for Drug Research (LACDR) onder leiding van Daniel Rozen en…
