Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) ENABLE Annual Meeting
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health threat. Infections caused by resistant bacteria are increasing and causing Europe to face soaring costs both in terms of lives and public health expenditure. Despite the strong need for new antimicrobials, very few new, effective antibiotics have been brought to the market in the last decades. The ENABLE project, within IMI’s New Drugs for Bad Bugs (ND4BB) programme, is working to advance the development of potential antibiotics against Gram-negative bacteria, such as…

Participants include CARB-X funded companies Eligo Bioscience and Seres Therapeutics. As the first microbiome-based therapeutic steps closer to market approval, the scientific community continue to demonstrate the functional role of the human microbiome as a novel source of therapeutic, biomarker and diagnostic development. Despite this progress, the vast potential to develop effective treatments that target the human microbiome is still limited by the complex challenges in developing them. Part of the foremost conference series for microbiome researchers in industry, the…

The 3rd Bacteriophage Therapy Summit returns! With a new looking speaker line-up and never before seen content, we are excited to continue to unite the community to progress fundamental bacteriophage research into clinically-significant products. The overuse of antibiotics had led to the development of multi-resistant bacterial strains, most notably ESKAPE pathogens, rendering the use of antibiotics, which in many scenarios are useless. However, bacteriophages may hold the key in overcoming the global antibiotic resistance crisis. Although the potential use of…
