REVIVE Webinar: Targeting metabolism in mycobacteria to develop new antimicrobials

14 July 2026 - EVENT

BEAM Alliance

Speakers:

  • Luiz Pedro Sorio de Carvalho, Professor of Chemistry, The Herbert Wertheim UF Scripps Institute (USA)
  • Kyu Rhee, Professor of Medicine, Cornell University (USA)

Moderator: Laura Cleghorn, Reader, University of Dundee (UK)

Mycobacteria rely on highly specialized and flexible metabolic pathways to survive under stress conditions such as hypoxia, nutrient limitation, and host immune pressure. This webinar will explore the promising strategy of studying and targeting the metabolism of this microorganism in order to develop new antimicrobials.

Presentation 1: Understanding metabolism in mycobacteria (Luiz Pedro Sorio de Carvalho)

Presentation 2: Targeting mycobacterial metabolism for drug development (Kyu Rhee)

Date and time:
14 July 2026 at 17:00 – 18:30 CEST
