This grant, offered by the Department of Health, aims to support milestone-driven projects crucial for advancing therapeutic discovery. Specifically, it focuses on developing and leveraging novel predictive models, assays, tools, and platforms. These innovations will be based on understanding the penetration and efflux mechanisms of small molecules, critical for effective drug development. The primary purpose is to facilitate the discovery of new therapies targeting select antibiotic-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. These include highly problematic strains such as carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), and multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, addressing a significant public health challenge. This initiative seeks to foster partnerships to accelerate the development of much-needed tools in the fight against these difficult-to-treat infections.
