- View this project about removing unwarranted penicillin allergy labels and why patients sometimes hesitate to remove their allergy label.
- Researchers will work with out-of-hour primary care services to create a national learning community to reduce antibiotic prescriptions.
- Researchers propose the FunHitDisco, a Fungal Hit Discovery Platform. Read how they will use this to discover antifungal drugs.
- Read how researchers will develop reliable biomarkers to improve treatment predictions and outcomes for antifungal-resistant Candida infections.
- Read how the SHIELD-project strengthens natural defences through ‘trained immunity’, enabling the immune system to combat fungal infections more effectively.
- Read how researchers will use genome sequencing to study the fungal genus Candida in hospitals to limit its transmission.
- Resistance to antibiotics is increasing worldwide and alternatives are sought for antimicrobial treatment. AimThe overall purpose was to explore and identify antibiotics and non-antibiotics more active in combination than alone (called synergism) against multi- drug resistant bacteria. The tasks of the EMC involved the overall coordination of the project, identification of synergistic combinations…
- Project descriptionMycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), a disease responsible for almost 1.5 million deaths per year. In recent years, different classes of drug resistant strains have emerged, making the discovery of novel tuberculostatic drugs a major priority. A major disadvantage of most existing and new TB compounds is that they target a single molecule…
- Infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a major threat to public health. Due to globalisation and poor use of antibiotics, resistance is spreading rapidly. Moreover, few new antibiotics have come onto the market in the last 20 years.AimIn this international project, researchers have been using the latest high-throughput screens to look for new combinations of drugs that can effectively…
