Understanding the Global Health Problem of Antimicrobial Resistance and How to Solve It

Infectious diseases for which current medical treatments are not effective are among the leading cause of death of people of all ages globally. These are caused by microbial pathogens (principally bacteria) that have emerged under the evolutionary selective pressure imposed by overuse and misuse of antibiotics to show antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Learn about the cutting-edge research to identify and evaluate molecular targets to combat AMR.
