How does collective antibiotic protection in bacterial populations impact the emergence of antibiotic resistance?
Research Group:
Institute of Evolutionary Biology
Antibiotic resistance is a major threat to public health, compromising treatment and prevention of bacterial infections previously well-controlled by antibiotics. Read more

Clinical: Colo-Pro: A clinical trial to compare cefuroxime prophylaxis treatment regimes for the prevention of infections after colorectal surgery
Aims. We want to stop the infections patients suffer after colo-rectal surgery. . Background. Patients in hospital have operations as part of their care. Read more
Tackling antibiotic seeking in behaviour in veterinary and dental practices
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health and patient safety emergency driven by the unnecessary use of antimicrobial drugs. Dentistry is responsible for around 10% of antibiotics globally, with up to 80% unnecessary of inappropriate use. Read more

Understanding Multiple Antibiotic Resistance in Gram-negative Bacteria
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
Antibiotics have transformed medical practice, increased life expectancy and, together with vaccination, led to the near eradication of many bacterial diseases. Read more
Finding the source and tracking transmission of an antibiotic-resistant superbug, Acinetobacter baumannii
Understanding where antibiotic-resistant bacteria come from and how they are being spread between patients within a hospital is essential to be able to control the problem. Read more
SWBio DTP PhD project: Tackling antibiotic resistance through blocking of signalling pathways
This project is one of a number that are in competition for funding from the. South West Biosciences Doctoral Training Partnership (SWBio DTP). Read more
Control of antibiotic production through synthetic biology of bacterial hormone signalling
There is an urgent need for new antibiotics due to an increase in antibiotic resistance. To produce these essential drugs efficiently in biotechnological systems, we need to have a better understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of antibiotic production. Read more
Designing new antibiotic treatment regimens that mitigate against poor patient compliance
Leading organisations including the NHS, G20, WHO and NIHR recognise antibiotic resistance as an international strategic priority, putting an increasing pressure on our health service, with an estimated 33100 deaths across the EU/EEA in 2015. Read more
Factors determining diagnosis, antibiotic treatment and outcomes of stroke-associated pneumonia
Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability and has huge personal, societal and economic impact worldwide. Pneumonia frequently complicates stroke and has a profound impact on clinical outcomes. Read more
Antibiotic Resistance and Biofilm Formation in Clinical Isolates of Enterococcus faecium – a WHO High Priority Pathogen
E. faecium is an important human pathogen which exhibits resistance to a range of antibiotics, and is implicated in a wide variety of device associated infections. Read more
Relationship between antibiotic therapy and development of antimicrobial resistance in patients with bronchiectasis and COPD
To decrease the risk of acute infective exacerbations or flare-ups of their condition, individuals with bronchiectasis and COPD are frequently prescribed long-term oral and inhaled antibiotics. Read more
Understanding the effect of antibiotic combinations: a quantitative approach
Research Group:
Institute of Cell Biology
Our society is currently facing an important problem with the rise of multiple antibiotic resistant bacterial strains. As the development of new antibiotics has stalled in recent years, new strategies are urgently needed to supplement current available therapies. Read more
