💊 New antibiotic class
Scientists have developed Novltex, a new antibiotic with strong activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria like MRSA. It’s cheaper to make and highly effective in lab tests.

Novltex: A New Class of Antibiotics with Potent Activity against Multidrug-Resistant Bacterial Pathogens─Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation
Increasing spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria demands antibiotics that combine potent activity with scalable synthesis. Novo29 (clovibactin) is promising but suffers from low yield (1%), dep...

We have to pivot hard and fast now. European alliance and the EU have to be the way. Align fast and hard. Also we need to start making our own weapons rather than reliance on American arms and support

Loving this new paper on complexity in medicine, using pediatrics as the worked example.
Too many medical authors (and the MRC) run fast and loose with the terms 'complexity' and 'complex interventions'. They should read this paper.

If things were simple, word would have gotten around. Can complexity science help us improve pediatric research? - Pediatric Research

‘A place of joy’: why scientists are joining the rush to Bluesky
Researchers say the social-media platform — an alternative to X — offers more control over the content they see and the people they engage with.
