AiCuris Gained Bio.NRW Research Promotion
The project “Innovative Antibiotics made in NRW” is aimed to enable research and development of new antibiotics effective against life threatening multi-resistant bacteria e.g. the hospital agent MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). The grant is composed from funds of the “Ziel 2 – Programm NRW 2007-20013” (European fund for regional development) and from the Ministry of Innovation, Science and Research of North Rhine-Westphalia.
In its project AiCuris will evaluate the optimisation potential of underexplored natural products together with other members of the consortium. The aim is to identify a development candidate with resistance breaking properties as a new weapon to combat resistant bacteria.
