Behind the scenes
Uppsala Antibiotic Center
Multidisciplinary center for research, education, innovation and awareness aimed at tackling and finding solutions to the global challenge of antibiotic resistance. UAC conducts interdisciplinary research and education on antibiotic resistance involving all three disciplinary domains at Uppsala University and SLU.
PLATINEA
PLATINEA aims to ensure availability and preserve the value of existing antibiotics. The project is divided in several work packages which handle various issues in the field of antibiotics, and is a multisectorial collaboration platform with 18 partners all around Sweden. The common goal is to ensure that the antibiotics are used in the best way and to ensure accessibility to important antibiotics that risk disappearing from Sweden
ENABLE-2
Antibacterial drug discovery platform based on the learnings from ENABLE (IMI Innovative Medicines Initiative) and is focused on the early stages of antibiotic discovery and development. ENABLE-2 will make an important contribution, filling a gap in early discovery and development, and ensuring there is a complete global development pipeline for new antibiotics.
PANDEMIC LABORATORY PREPAREDNESS - SciLifeLab
The PLP optimizes SciLifeLab operations to support and complement other societal functions such as authorities, municipalities and regions in pandemic laboratory preparedness. They do this through research (diagnostics, analysis of infection, immunity, and resistance related to viruses, bacteria and other disease-causing organisms), competence & technology development (sequencing, genetic analysis, immunological methods & big data)
