A Meandering Path from Biochemist to Microbiologist

Abstract:
Not all career paths are clearly defined from the beginning. In my case, biochemistry training in enzymology provided the tools to move from a basic research beginning in biophysical/bioorganic chemistry to an applied microbiology career in antibiotic drug discovery and development. This pathway required essential contributions from family, professional colleagues, co-workers, and mentors who all provided input at critical times during changes in career directions. As a result of applying skills from previous research positions to new sets of challenges, my contributions to various antibiotic research programs led to the introduction of valuable antimicrobial agents currently used in the treatment of infected patients.

Two special sources may be considered when they are in phase. This can be easily achieved by feeding the two sources from the same source. An example would be synchronizing the two speakers by feeding them with the same source, such as the sound waves produced by a tuning fork. This setup ensures that the two sources have the same frequency and are...

Diffraction
Diffraction is the change in the direction of travel experienced by an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a physical barrier whose dimensions are comparable to those of the wavelength of the light. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths about as long as the distance between neighboring...
00:54Electron Behavior
Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that are attracted to an orbit around the positively-charged nucleus of an atom. They reside in locations that are associated with energy levels called shells and are further organized into sub-shells and orbitals within each shell.
Electrons Orbit the Nucleus
Electrons are found in specific locations outside of the nucleus. The shell in which an electron resides indicates the general energy level of the electron: those closer to the...
