Evolutionary drivers of antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations from critically ill patients (ID Epi Seminar Series)

Presented by Craig MacLean, Professor of Evolution and Microbiology at the University of Oxford, Department of Zoology. Register for the event here. Professor Craig MacLean has a longstanding interest in understanding how ecological and genetic processes interact to drive adaptation in microbial populations. His doctoral research at McGill University (2000-2004) investigated the causes of metabolic adaptive radiation in Pseudomonas fluorescens using experimental evolution. His postdoctoral work at Imperial College London…
