NHMRC 17/18 1.1 Health and Medical Research
Grant Program:
Early Career Fellowships
Grant Activity:
Maximising the effectiveness of antimicrobial treatments for infection control after surgery
Purpose:

Superbugs, or antibiotic-resistant bacteria, cause recurring infections after surgery and non-healing wounds as existing antibiotics fail to effectively kill them. I developed and patented a novel approach to fight superbugs by feeding bacteria poisonous food. This could re-sensitise resistant bacteria and boost antibiotic activity as a double-whammy against superbugs. I will advance my treatment to clinical applications for effective infection control after surgery.
