EU research to study antibiotic resistance

26 March 2006

The European Union has launched a research network to tackle the problem of increasing resistance to antibiotics in cases of lower respiratory tract infections, such as bron-chitis or pneumonia. The problem afflicts an estimated 16 million people across Europe each year.

The Genomics to Combat Resistance against Antibiotics in Community-acquired LRTI in Europe (GRACE) will pool resources from 17 reseach centers in nine of the EU's member states to coordinate research on anti-microbial resistance to antibiotics.

GRACE gets 11.5 million euros until 2011
