Yanfang Feng, PhD. has recieved an NWO Rubicon grant. She studies the bacterial survival techniques. Many deadly bacteria can evade antibiotic treatment by “sleeping” while under threat and then waking up at a later time. This proposal will study how light-activated therapies can target and destroy these hard-to-kill bacteria.
