Join host Jenna Carmichael, PharmD for a discussion on Antimycobacterial activity of acetone extract and isolated metabolites from folklore medicinal lichen Usnea laevis Nyl. against drug-sensitive and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis strains with guest Susan Egbert, PharmD.

Susan (she/her) completed her PharmD at the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM). During school, she realized that there’s still not a lot done on natural products despite a fair number of drugs having natural origins. Currently, Susan is a third year PhD candidate in chemistry at the University of Manitoba (U of M). Her research is focusing on lichens, biosynthesis of their secondary metabolites, and their pharmacological activity.
