Identifying New Anti-Fungal Agents

In this collaboration with several Brasilian laboratories (at University of Mato Grosso State, University of Maringá, Embrapa, and University of Brasilia), we identified several novel small-molecule drug leads against Trypanosoma cruzi, a parasite responsible for Chagas disease [21]. We also proposed several small-molecule inhibitors against Fusarium graminearum, a fungal threat to global wheat production [15], [12].
