New discovery platforms, novel screens and approaches are vital for the discovery of new antibacterials and for ceasing the dangerous trends of multidrug microbial resistance. Gram-negative bacteria are one of the main challenges for the healthcare system and public health in general. Gram-negative bacteria have specific scientific problems such as low permeability of the outer membrane that must be overcome, complicated and multiple resistance mechanisms, etc. Cambridge Healthtech Institute's 5th Annual Antibacterial Discovery and Development and the 2nd Annual Targeting Gram Negative Pathogens conference are designed as knowledge and experience exchanges for the major stakeholders working in this important area.
