- The rapid spread of multidrug resistant bacteria threatens the treatment of even simple infections in the near future. However, little is known about how bacteria develop resistance on surfaces.AimThe aim of this project was to investigate fundamental mechanisms that shape antimicrobial resistance in biofilms in relation to the surface and then translate those findings into clinical practice…
- Infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a major threat to public health. Due to globalisation and poor use of antibiotics, resistance is spreading rapidly. Moreover, few new antibiotics have come onto the market in the last 20 years.AimIn this international project, researchers have been using the latest high-throughput screens to look for new combinations of drugs that can effectively…
- Researchers will determine the effectiveness of antibiotic stewardship programs in the intensive care unit and formulate recommendations for implementation.

20 talented researchers will receive an Off Road grant to explore their bold, out-of-the-box ideas within the field of (bio)medical science and healthcare. This grant offers them the opportunity to test their innovative hypotheses in 1 to 1,5 years. What do these researchers have in common? They dare to think beyond traditional boundaries. - Read more about the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTIs) without signs of tissue invasion (afebrile UTI (a-UTI)) in men in general practice
- View this project about measuring antibiotic levels with therapeutic drug monitoring to prevent increases in antimicrobial resistance.
- Resistance against β-lactam antibiotics is a serious health issue. Often it is caused by bacteria producing enzymes capable of inactivating these antibiotics, β-lactamases. This can be prevented by combining the antibiotic with a compound able to inhibit the bacterial enzyme. AimThe aim of this project was to find new β-lactamase inhibitors. To achieve this a large botanical extract library was…
- Resistance to antibiotics is increasing worldwide and alternatives are sought for antimicrobial treatment. AimThe overall purpose was to explore and identify antibiotics and non-antibiotics more active in combination than alone (called synergism) against multi- drug resistant bacteria. The tasks of the EMC involved the overall coordination of the project, identification of synergistic combinations…

In the ZonMw Open Competition 2024 round, a total of 29 research teams have been selected to receive funding from a total budget of €24 million. This funding enables the research groups to develop innovative team science initiatives that contribute to the long-term advancement of fundamental (bio)medical science and healthcare. - Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) is a multi-resistant bacterium, capable of causing outbreaks in hospitals. This project aims to determine the best VRE screening protocol.
