Super (bad) Bugs on Regular New Media

Here is a news on CNN describing Super bugs in a hospital in Los Angeles. Click here.
There is a growing problem of bacterial pathogens that are resistant to exiting drugs. We have started a program title TREAT to address this national and global need for new antibiotics. Click here.
If you can help us sequence genomes of bacterial pathogens (to understand the genetic basis of mechanism of resistance) or have a chemical synthesis lab (to synthesize some molecules we have designed) please contact us at treat@jhu.edu
Together we can develop new antibiotics to treat these infections.
