- Read how researchers will develop reliable biomarkers to improve treatment predictions and outcomes for antifungal-resistant Candida infections.
- Read how the SHIELD-project strengthens natural defences through ‘trained immunity’, enabling the immune system to combat fungal infections more effectively.
- Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is characterised by clonal spread. MRSA clones are unequally distributed across the world and different clones are dominant at different times. AimThe MACOTRA project studied the interaction between MRSA, humans and the environment. The researchers used mathematical models to gain a better understanding of MRSA dynamics.ResultsA main predictor of…

Researchers from Science (ENW | 57), Applied and Engineering Sciences (AES | 15), Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH | 54), and Health Research and Development (ZonMw | 23) receive Vidi grants. This enables the laureates to develop an innovative line of research over the next 5 years and further expand their research group. - Read how researchers will use genome sequencing to study the fungal genus Candida in hospitals to limit its transmission.
- 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…
- Project descriptionMycobacterium tuberculosis is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), a disease responsible for almost 1.5 million deaths per year. In recent years, different classes of drug resistant strains have emerged, making the discovery of novel tuberculostatic drugs a major priority. A major disadvantage of most existing and new TB compounds is that they target a single molecule…
- Read how is investigated wastewater treatment plant employees and local residents are more likely to carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- 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…

In a growing number of calls for grant applications, ZonMw allows the production of FAIR (meta)data in projects. This page provides information about ZonMw's approach for this. That is followed by instructions for what grant applicants and recipients must do to get started with FAIR (meta)data. - Infections with antibiotic resistant bacteria, for example an urinary tract infections, are difficult to treat. Because of this, antibiotic resistance is an important public health threat. In Europe, the ESBL-producing gut bacteria (ESBL-G), are the most important cause of such infections, with around 400.000 cases per year. 5% of the Dutch inhabitants carries ESBL-G, while outside the Netherlands…
