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 …
