23 Jan In Search of New Antibiotics - A chemical Expedition from the Present to the Stone Age Most antibiotics consist of chemical compounds that are produced by microorganisms. In recent years, the rapid spread of resistant pathogens has led to many antibiotics losing their effectiveness. The search for new active substances is therefore a key scientific challenge in the fight against this resistance. However, traditional strategies often… 16:15 - 17:30 Prof. Dr. Pierre Stallforth Fürstengraben 1, HS 024
