Antibiotic resistance work in the U.K.

phls.co.uk

Partial quote:

"At the new Laboratory, where we will work closely with NHS and academic colleagues, with the
British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy and with the pharmaceutical industry, we recognize
that development of new antibiotics is critical, just as is trying to extend the value of existing drugs"
AND another quote from another page:

The work of the new lab will include

Monitoring patterns and trends in resistance, and relating these to the use and effectiveness of antibiotics in treating
disease

Evaluating new drugs for use against ‘superbugs'

Conducting research into the fundamental bases of resistance and how resistances can be outmanoeuvred.
