Using synthetic biology and AI to address global antimicrobial resistance threat

Drug-resistant infections are increasing due to antibiotic overuse and misuse, while development of new antibacterial treatments has slowed. Synthetic biology and AI are being explored as potential solutions to address the growing global antimicrobial resistance threat.

• →Antimicrobial resistance is rising globally due to overuse and misuse of antibiotics.
• →Development of new antibacterial tools has significantly slowed down.
• →Synthetic biology approaches are being pursued to create new antimicrobial solutions.
• →AI technologies are being leveraged to accelerate drug discovery and development.
• →The combination of synthetic biology and AI represents a promising approach to combat drug-resistant infections.
