🔴 Day 1 Live Update
An insightful presentation by Dr. Hedia Marrakchi on “Exploring Old Scaffolds for Enhancing the Discovery of Novel Antituberculosis Molecules.”
Dr. Marrakchi is a CNRS Research Director and leads the Mycobacterial Envelopes and Therapeutic Targets group at the Institut de Pharmacologie et de Biologie Structurale (IPBS), CNRS and Université de Toulouse, France. Her research focuses on mycobacterial envelope lipids, metabolic pathways, potential therapeutic targets, and the development of innovative approaches related to tuberculosis and antibiotic resistance.
Her presentation explores the use of established chemical scaffolds as a route toward identifying and developing novel antituberculosis molecules. This topic connects with ongoing research into mycobacterial lipid metabolism, cell-envelope biology, therapeutic targets, and new approaches to addressing antibiotic resistance.
The presentation is part of Session I: Drug Resistance Mechanisms and Antibiotic Discovery at Frontiers in TB & Mycobacteriology 2026, contributing to the scientific discussions on tuberculosis drug discovery and the development of new therapeutic strategies.
This conference is organized by Impact Research Communications (IRC)
