For decades, doctors have widely used tetracyclines for conditions ranging from acne to tick-borne illnesses. Using high-resolution imaging technology, researchers in the laboratory of Christopher Bunick, MD, Ph.D., associate professor of dermatology at Yale School of Medicine (YSM), captured a never-before-seen look into how different kinds of tetracyclines bind to and kill bacteria.
