Decoding Microbial Mysteries: The Power of Structural Biology

The objective of this session is to highlight the roles of structural biology in fighting microbes. By understanding the atomic details of proteins, researchers can uncover the molecular mechanisms behind microbial processes such as metabolism, infection, and antibiotic resistance. This knowledge enables the design of targeted drugs, innovative vaccines, and engineered microbes for applications in health, agriculture, and biotechnology, offering profound insights into both combating harmful pathogens and harnessing beneficial microbes.
