Neta Shlezinger

Congratulations to Neta Shlezinger, Zuckerman Faculty Scholar at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem at the Koret School of Veterinary Medicine, and her colleagues on the publication of “Beyond the Target: New Dimensions of Antifungal Action” in Cell Death Discovery. The article highlights new insights into how echinocandin antifungal drugs may interact not only with their traditional enzyme target but also with the structure and organization of fungal cell membranes. This broader view could help researchers better understand antifungal resistance and guide future approaches to drug optimization.
