Join this one-hour webinar presented by Dr. Jennifer Geddes-McAlister, Canada Research Chair in the Proteomics of Fungal Disease in One Health, as she explores innovative approaches to combat the growing global crisis of fungal diseases. Learn how mass spectrometry-based proteomics identifies protein-level drivers of fungal virulence, enabling the disruption of critical proteins and pathways to weaken pathogens and prevent infections. Discover the development of dual-perspective protein production signatures for both host and pathogen that provide precise diagnostic and prognostic insights. Explore how research into host-pathogen interactions at the protein level uncovers novel drug targets and therapeutic innovations. Understand strategies to combat antifungal resistance by targeting proteins that drive resistance through chemical and genetic interventions. The webinar includes an extended Q&A session where Dr. Geddes-McAlister shares insights from her pioneering research and discusses her initiative "Moms in Proteomics," which supports women in STEM.
