Read my latest in @sdut with @ForgeThera Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Andrew Tomaras about #AntimicrobialResistance – and the importance of shaping policy that supports research, development and production of new #antibiotics nuvi.me/wqeygv

Society desperately needs new antibiotics but, right now, there is no viable market for them. We’re joining others in backing a new $1 billion @AMRActionFund that aims to bring 2 to 4 new antibiotics to patients by 2030.

#COVID19 has shown us that global health crises need truly global responses. That’s why we are committed to the @AMRActionFund alongside @IFPMA to #StopAMR. Learn more: amractionfund.com/

*GREAT NEWS* -- The pharma industry is launching a $1-billion @AMRActionFund to develop antibiotics. The goal is to deliver 2-4 new drugs by the end of the decade to save modern medicine from deadly drug-resistant infections.

Unlike #COVID19, AMR is a predictable and preventable crisis – a problem we can't afford to ignore. Today, we're proud to be officially launching the #AMRActionFund. bit.ly/2CeJRnb

Antibiotics saved @koutterson's granddaughter's life just days after being born. He wants to make sure that others can rely on treatments when needed, just like his family did. Take a stand now and fight #AMR. #WorldAMRCongress workingtofightamr.org

This year's #NationalChemistryWeek's theme is #MarvelousMetals so we forged a piece of steel into a dagger. There's so much chemistry at play here--the carbon content of the metal, the arrangement of molecules when heated, quenching, and more: bit.ly/32oLNBC
