Would you like to support research (http://bit.ly/1MZvBcQ) directed at the discovery and development of new antibiotics to treat life-threatening superbug infections? Your tax-deductible donation to the Quave Lab could make a real difference in advancing our research efforts! Funds are needed to support student research projects and the purchase of research supplies, small equipment, and other direct research expenses. We take a unique approach to drug discovery by using ethnobotany to identify herbal medicines that could contain the chemical ingredients necessary for the next generation of antibiotics. You can read more about our work on our website (https://etnobotanica.us/) and in recent news stories that covered our discovery of compounds from Chestnut leaves that disarm the deadly superbug MRSA (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/08/150821164150.htm)
Every donation helps us to expand our work to evaluate more plant extracts against top antibiotic resistant superbugs like CRE and MRSA. You can make donations directly to the Quave Lab on the secure Emory Giving Website: https://securelb.imodules.com/s/1705/giving/index.aspx?sid=1705&gid=3&pgid=600&cid=1358&dids=9947&bledit=1&appealcode=W6CCQ
