Antibiotics for resistant bacteria
New antibiotics, or other agents, that kill bacteria resistant to the drugs now in use, discovered and developed fast enough to keep pace with the spread of resistance. This entry maps research; it is not medical advice.
Scope
In: small-molecule and peptide antibacterial discovery, including computational discovery, and agents against drug-resistant bacterial infections. Out: vaccines, bacteriophage therapy, and diagnostics. Computational discovery tools belong to ai/ai-for-science.
