Fighting antibiotic resistant bacteria by skipping anitbiotics

Phage-mimicking antibacterial core–shell nanoparticles. Excited to have started publishing and filing for a patent on our antibiotic-free antimicrobial nanoparticles research. More to come in the following months! Thankful for the support from #notredame #ideacenter #antibioticresistance #ndnano #Advanceddiagnosticsandtherapeutics #ADandT #openaccess The increasing frequency of nosocomial infections caused by antibiotic-resistant microorganisms concurrent with the stagnant discovery of …

Center for the Translational Sciences Indiana Awards us Seed Grant for an Innovative Antibiotic Free Nanotherapeutics to Combat Multi-drug Resistant Bacterial Infections

Biomedical research is at risk of losing the antibiotics vs. pathogens arms race. Pneumonia, tuberculosis, gonorrhea, and salmonellosis are becoming harder and sometimes impossible to treat due to the fast emergence and global spread of new antibiotic resistance. Without urgent action, we are heading for a post-antibiotic era, in which common infections and minor injuries …
