Dr. Guo is an assistant professor in the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at McGill University. He completed his education worldwide, starting at the undergraduate level at Mount Allison University, continuing into his Ph.D. at Queen's University, and finally in postdoctoral fellowship at Eindhoven University of Technology and Yale University. His current research is focused on combatting antimicrobial resistance through alternative methods focused on bacterial adhesion, which has particular promise in its ability to circumvent the speed of bacterial evolution by preventing binding in the first place.","meta_description":"In this episode of STEMcast, we explore Dr. Shuaiqi Guo's academic history as well as his research in adhesive surface chemistry and its relation to antim…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1422,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/stemcast-mcgill-igem-6511088/episodes/stemcast-episode-22-surface-chemistry-and-binding-with-dr-guo/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/stemcast-mcgill-igem-6511088/stemcast-episode-22-surface-chemistry-and-binding-with-dr-guo.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
