Antibiotics and Antibiotic Resistance

ANTIBIOTICS FOR EMERGING & RE-EMERGING DISEASES

Antimicrobial agents play vital roles in decreasing human morbidity and mortality resulting from infectious diseases. Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases are global problems, and a constant supply of new antibiotics is essential if we are to combat these diseases successfully. The session is open to discuss on synthetic tailoring, discovery of new scaffolds, designing screens that avoid rediscovering old scaffolds, repurposing libraries of synthetic molecules for use as antibiotics, Exploring microbial niches for products, molecular target selection, improving libraries to overcome resistance, Safety and efficacy, Vaccines available for the diseases, Phage’s and parasitic bacteria, Epidemiology and spread of microbes and resistance traits.
