🎉 Congratulations to CCAMP-supported startup #GangaGen! They have secured the third installment of its phased funding grant from CARB-X for the "Klebicin program," targeting multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae! CARB-X has committed USD 7.9 million for preclinical

Thanks HHS ASPR BARDA for your continued support to CARB-X. We can #StopSuperbugs together.

Important message 👇!

Job #opportunity to #StopSuperbugs! #AMR #globalhealth

“Governments must enforce stricter policies around the use of antibiotics in both human and veterinary medicine. They must also incentivize the development of new #antibiotics – an area of research that has slowed in recent years.” earth.com/news/antibioti…

“#Superbugs are a way of denoting #bacteria that have become resistant to multiple different classes of #antibiotics, giving them kind of an additional power to infect and cause disease, because there are limited to no countermeasures you can use against them.”

“Push #incentives - provided by organizations like CARB-X - support early-stage research and carry #antibiotic candidates through their first human clinical trials, minimizing the risks companies face if their product doesn’t make it to market.”

“The G7 forum of industrialised nations has at least recognised the #AMR crisis. However, there is still a lack of adequate action and that needs to be tackled as an imperative in the coming year.”

“Multidrug-resistance is bad, but once a pathogen gains resistance to all known #antibiotics, known as pan-resistance, a dramatically rapid shift, rather than a gradual rise in public health impacts, can be expected.”

Great news: CARB-X -X has announced funding for Clarametyx Biosciences to advance the development of an anti-biofilm vaccine. We look forward to seeing the impact this partnership will have on the future of AMR solutions. Read it here ➡️ carb-x.org/carb-x-news/ca…

This was my first photo at age 35 after a facial reconstruction following a car accident in South Africa and a long 10-year recovery. There were days when I didn't think I'd have a face left, especially after overcoming three years of antibiotic resistant infections in between,

🦠💊Many infections are treated with #antibiotics: Bacterial pneumonia Bloodstream infections Intra-abdominal infections Urinary tract infections Typhoid fever Skin infections Meningitis Tuberculosis Severe diarrhea Cardiac infections Bone and joint infections Gonorrhea

Go Italy! On Dec 28, 24, the Italian Senate gave final approval to the government’s 2025 budget, introducing measures to support groundbreaking anti-infective treatments. 2025 Budget (in Italian) ➡️ mef.gov.it/export/sites/M… Thank you John Rex and Damiano de Felice for sharing this!

#AntimicrobialResistance (AR) happens when germs like bacteria and fungi defeat the antibiotic or antifungal drugs designed to kill them. Find this and more important facts about this urgent global public health threat: bit.ly/3RYFYXn.

“I definitely would not suggest that people ate #oysters instead of taking #antibiotics if they have got a serious infection,” Benkendorff said. 🤣 theguardian.com/science/2025/j…

This could prevent so many unwarranted antibiotics from being administered, help to curb antimicrobial resistance, and lessen time to provide the correct antibiotics. Very cool. Thanks @cidrap for sharing! CARB-X funds development of novel pneumonia diagnostic

“Governments can help by funding more research and development into new #antibiotics, and then those new drugs need to be sent to low-income countries which have the biggest issue with the spread of #AMR infections.” #StopSuperbugs
