It's a good time to mention that Iβve just started as an assistant professor at the University of North Carolina SOM, Micro & Immuno, where we will work to understand mechanisms that generate heteroresistance and phenotypic heterogeneity in Enterobacter and other multi-drug resistant Gram- pathogens
