Diagnostics to reduce antimicrobial (mis)use

Description

Context

• Overuse of antimicrobials is widespread today

• Antimicrobial resistance is one of our biggest health challenges

• We intend to develop a cheap, quick, easy-to use diagnostic that can differentiate viral from bacterial infections

• We hypothesize that this may reduce the use of antibiotics in animals infected with viruses.
