Cell division is essential for life. It is required for bacterial infections and, if uncontrolled, causes diseases such as cancer. We will establish how bacterial cells position the division site precisely to ensure faithful production of newborn cells. We will use the latest technology in bacterial cell biology to provide novel, clear-cut information to maintain Australia at the leading edge of this important area of research. There is an alarming increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria and an imminent threat of bioterrorism. This research allows the opportunity for the development of new antibiotics to protect Australia protected from these dangerous bacteria.

细胞分裂对生命至关重要。它是细菌感染所必需的，如果不加控制，会导致癌症等疾病。我们将确定细菌细胞如何精确定位分裂位点，以确保新生细胞的忠实生产。我们将利用细菌细胞生物学的最新技术，提供新颖、明确的信息，以保持澳大利亚在这一重要研究领域的领先地位。抗生素耐药性细菌的数量惊人地增加，生物恐怖主义的威胁迫在眉睫。这项研究为开发新的抗生素提供了机会，以保护澳大利亚免受这些危险细菌的侵害。
