I'm very excited about this one, novel antifungal!

Reminder: Nobel-prize winning PCR (1983), used in basically all genetic tech today, was only possible because of extremophile bacterium discovered in 1964 in Yellowstone funded by a small ~$80k NSF grant with no obvious application at the time. #science 🧪 www.richmondscientific.com/how-a-discov...

As we enter another week of crisis in the biomedical sciences, I thought I would make a list of the advances in field of infectious diseases THAT I HAVE WITNESSED since I became board certified in 1990. I am sure I missed a few advances, and this is only in the field of ID.

Joining the blue!
