DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Rosalind Allen\nAbstract: Antibiotics are central in m
 odern medicine\, and the threat  of antimicrobial resistance makes it impo
 rtant that we use them as  effectively as possible. Yet there are surprisi
 ng gaps in our  understanding of how antibiotics work in growing bacterial
  cells.  Antibiotics that target the bacterial cell wall account for the  
 majority of clinical usage. Building on the results of simple growth  expe
 riments on different media and using different cell wall targeting  antibi
 otics\, we have developed a mathematical model for the interplay  between 
 bacterial growth and the action of cell wall targeting  antibiotics. Our m
 odel suggests that the balance between bacterial  surface area and volume 
 growth may play a crucial role.
