Please join us as we celebrate the launch of The University of Queensland’s Institute for Molecular Bioscience (IMB) Centre for Superbug Solutions.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared multidrug–resistant bacteria, or superbugs, as one of the world’s biggest health challenges.

Widespread resistance to our arsenal of antibiotics is no longer a threat — it is reality.

Superbugs are reducing our ability to treat common infectious diseases, increasing health care costs, and putting patients around the world at greater risk.

IMB’s Centre for Superbug Solutions is working collaboratively with clinicians, researchers and policymakers to develop better ways to prevent, detect and treat superbugs.

Attendance is via RSVP only. Please register soon to avoid disappointment.
