This project has a multi-level research agenda on drug resistance evolution. By a combination of theoretical modeling and laboratory evolution experiments, we aim at making concrete predictions about the evolution of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. We focus on the relationship between genotype, phenotype, and fitness, including social interactions influencing resistance evolution.
