  Localised antibiotic delivery and release with luminescent mesoporous silica nanoparticles
University of Birmingham School of Chemistry
  Prof Z Pikramenou, Dr J Blair
Application Deadline: 6 January 2019
Bacterial infections are becoming harder to treat as antibiotic resistance becomes increasingly prevalent. There is also a lack of drugs in the pipeline to take the place of those that can no longer be used due to resistance and novel therapeutic options are needed.
