Research Roundtable
Research Roundtable is a series of ISB hosted conversations with our leading scientists on the latest research happening at ISB. Designed for a general audience, this series is open to all. Attendees have the opportunity to ask questions directly to our scientists.
Across the globe, tuberculosis kills one person every 20 seconds. ISB’s Baliga Lab has been studying Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) – the evasive pathogen responsible for tuberculosis – for more than a decade. In newly published research, Baliga Lab scientists discovered a key network within Mtb that allows it to evade treatment.
In our next Research Roundtable, Senior Research Scientist Dr. Eliza Peterson and ISB Professor Dr. Nitin Baliga will detail these findings, their efforts to develop drugs to target and inhibit Mtb’s ability to “hide,” and the potential ramifications of this important breakthrough.
ISB’s Research Roundtable is a virtual series that is free and open to all. These events are designed for everyone and provide opportunities to ask questions directly to our scientists.
Speakers: Dr. Nitin Baliga; ISB SVP, Director & Professor and Dr. Eliza Peterson; ISB Senior Research Scientist
Talk title: A Chink in the Armor of the Deadliest Infectious Disease
