An LSU-led research team is developing a new class of antibiotics capable of bypassing the defenses of drug-resistant bacteria, which otherwise make it difficult to cure chronic infections. On Friday, February 21, the LSU E. J. Ourso College of Business will host AI in Action: Leading in Louisiana Industries; a symposium dedicated to exploring how artificial intelligence (AI) is driving innovation in critical sectors that define Louisiana's economy. A $9.575 million gift from the William A. Brookshire Foundation will establish the William A. Brookshire ROTC Scholarship, support the new LSU Construction & Advanced Manufacturing Building, and strengthen the LSU College of Engineering's S&B Engineers and Constructors Scholarship, LSU's Future Scholars Program and the William A.
