Understanding Evolution on Multiple Scales: From Protein Physics to Population Genetics
Offered By: Institut Henri Poincaré via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 23-minute lecture on integrating computational drug design, biophysics, and population genetics to combat drug resistance. Delve into the multifaceted approach presented by Eugene Shakhnovich from Harvard University, addressing the challenge of evolving drug resistance from protein physics to population genetics. Gain insights into the complex interplay between molecular-level interactions and broader evolutionary processes in drug development. Learn how this integrated perspective can inform strategies to prevent the emergence of resistant strains, potentially revolutionizing the field of drug design and improving treatment outcomes.
