Site-selective modification of aminoglycoside antibiotics for therapeutic and diagnostic applications Eliza Maria Warszawik
1. Global warming and antimicrobial resistance are two of the major threats of existence of humanity on the Earth, and humans are highly responsible for both of them.
2. Although resistant strains were found existing thousands of years ago, people substantially contributed to faster development of new resistance mechanisms and to spread of resistant species all over the world. (This thesis)
3. To date, there has been resistance developed to all antibiotics available on the market and the spread of antimicrobial resistance has emerged as one of the major threats to human health. If nothing is done, we will return to the pre-antibiotics era, when even a simple bacterial infection can be fatal. (This thesis)
4. Even slight structural changes introduced to aminoglycoside structure can have an enormous influence on its antimicrobial activity. (This thesis)
5. A week spent on literature search can save you months of work in the lab. 6. Frequent scientific discussions are very often a key to scientific success.
7. Patience is one of the qualities that is the hardest to learn, but it is also the one that pays the most, both in science and in life.
8. The advantage of regioselective reactions in synthesis of complex molecules is not only to save resources and time, but also the energy saved by a PhD student.
9. The impact factor of a journal very often does not justify the importance of the research published. 10. You cannot stop the waves, but you can learn how to (kite)surf.
