Resistance in Gram-Negative Organisms: Studying Intervention Strategies (R-GNOSIS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2017,
Antibiotics are a mainstay of public health, but their use has increased exponentially leading to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. The R-GNOSIS (Resistance in Gram-Negative Organisms: Studying Intervention Strategies) project combines 5 international clinical studies, all supported by highly innovative microbiology, mathematical modelling and data-management, to determine - in the most rele ...

Training and Research AImed at Novel Antibacterial Solutions in Animals and People (TRAIN-ASAP)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
TRAIN-ASAP addresses a very urgent public health issue. The lack of effective antibacterial drugs against resistant bacteria poses a serious threat to human health and has huge economical consequences to the healthcare system. The objective of this ITN is to fill the current gap between the burden of infections due to resistant bacteria and the strong need for alternative solutions to combat antib ...

Evolution and Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance (EVOTAR)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Antibiotics are essential therapeutics in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria that pose a major threat to human health as options for treating infections by these bacteria have become limited. The evolution, emergence and spread ofantibiotic resistance genes are still only poorly understood ...

ENzymatic DEcontamination TECHnology (ENDETECH)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
Human activities are associated with increasing amounts of waste that ultimately find their ways into European waters and have negative consequences on the environment. With the background of an aging population and increasing urbanization, wastewater treatment must specifically target pharmaceutical products (PPs) and endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) so that these highly biologically-active ...
