P Mark your calendar and check to see detailed information about the conference soon. Institute proposal drug resistance Gordon conferences on drug resistance has been accepted and scheduled for 2012! P conference will be devoted to studying the intriguing concept that drug resistance has to be one of the main criteria for drugs. Planning Conference is ... Stay tuned for more information. Institute for Drug Resistance offer the American Academy of Microbiology colloquium called for development of drugs in the past. P Include biology of drug resistance to drug design was adopted and will be held in spring 2012 P This rule is not taken into account that the propensity to develop resistance to drugs is critically important common feature of diseases that differ in almost every other way. But it is increasingly clear that close parallels can often be made between the resistance seen in one state, and disease resistance seen elsewhere. So far, study of drug resistance was very specific disease efforts, no systematic means for clinicians and researchers to share knowledge and resources that can benefit the general public. IDR Directors Dr. Peg Riley, professor of biology at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and Dr. Celia Schiffer, Professor of Microbiology and Molecular PharmacyP the University of Massachusetts Medical School received awards from the moment of Life Science Foundation Center for Clinical and translational science at the Massachusetts university. P $ 150,000 award will support the project "
