Funded Activity Summary

Towards antibacterials without resistance. Innovative automation technologies will be used to create and investigate a revolutionary new approach to disable pathogenic superbugs, bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics. The chemicals created and proteins evaluated in this research program will advance fundamental knowledge about the molecular weapons that bacteria produce to cause disease; deliver social and economic benefits to Australia through the development of potential new antibacterial treatments; contribute to Australia's continued international leading role in drug discovery research; enhance international links and attract industry investment in Australia; and provide a stimulating research training environment to inspire and motivate the next generation of scientists.
