Posted in Research

Todd Alexander presented at NATO’s Advanced Research Workshop “Nano technology to Aid Chemical and Biological Defense” in September in Antalya, Turkey. His research is concentrated on tethered antimicrobial peptides. These antimicrobial peptides or AMPs can be used in a broad variety of applications. Todd’s presentation focused on using these peptides, in this case Chrysophsin-1, to defend against microbial infection of medical devices. These peptides can also be used for bio-defense against biological threats.
